{*PCTeam*} Comparison and Review : ZF PAM671 and XF PAM671 V2

[Philph23]

I've only ever bought them m2m.
The worst I got just say fit my wrist & had 1 hole spare.
I suppose it was my fault for not looking into the lengths of them properly
I've got 7 & a quarter inch wrist so you say that's medium?

From what I've read yeah, 7 to 7/12 medium, going 7 1/2 to 8 large. Under 7 small.

Doesn't matter nowadays bro with all these great PAMS,
You know yourself that you can rock out with a 42mm sub now & it won't look out of place

Nothing at all mate. I'd sooner have spare rather than only just reaching the second keeper like on most of the Rep straps in my case. Just comparing it to my wrist where as the straps are mainly a little on the small side for me.

Just an FYI, the strap on the picture is an aftermarket strap which is longer than OEM, or a rep strap for that matter, that is why more tail shows up.
Cheers!!

I seriously doubt you were rocking a rep strap that nice.

my Panerai XF 671 has stopped, cannot restart it by either winding it or shaking it, seems to be stuck, any suggestions?

My cheapie Rolex 5512 vintage with basic a2813 movement suddenly stopped working. They do say that they are assembled in the factory dry. So basically no oil on the moving parts. That's why when you get a Rep with a decent movement it is advised you get a service straight away if you wear it often as it can soon dry out and simply stop.
Anyway with my 5512 I took the back off released the crown/stem by the quick release button, blew into the workings a few times to release any dust or particles that might have been in there. Put them stem crown back in and it started again lucky for me.
I have watch tools to do the work, pretty confident and good with my hands being a carpenter by trade.
If you don't feel confident to try this then I suggest 1st contacting your TD with having it only a short while and see what he says. Could end up cheaper just getting someone in your area that services reps. You'll find the info on here if you look properly.
Hope this helps and good look.

Thanks for that , my TD has asked me to send it back, I might take the back off for a look just to see if I can spot anything obviously wrong first

It has a open back though so you should be able to see if anything is obstructing the main balance wheel. That is the fancy big wheel with the Spring behind it. Rolex watches don't have open backs. Anyway once you've opened and messed with it you are voiding a genuine warranty from your TD in honesty. If he's offered to take it back then pay the shipping and accept his kind offer.

The rolex 5512 I took the back off only has a basic 2813 movement which is cheaper to replace than repair at around only $30-40 to buy a new one.

@Pilph23, are you sure you posted in the right thread? Those don't even sound like they belong in this section. :lmao:

@mysterio, it was a conversation that started from above where his 671 he recently got had suddenly stopped working. I just gave him some advise on how I got mine working again when it suddenly stopped. My watch was a 5512 with the 2813 movement was just indicating the same problem trying to help him out with the problem of his 671. Sorry it went off topic a little but the initial conversation was in relation to his 671 suddenly going dead.

The bronze and blue scheme works soooo well with leather it's really a shame I'm done with pams

Why are you done with them? I don't really like them for me, but the bronze is really nice. I think I may purchase one.

Honestly, on the wrist, the small and large PAM's wear fairly similar. For whatever reason, almost any PAM looks large but not too big on me.

 

[johngfahy]

By the way I got my Pam 671 back again from China all sorted running well
