A pictorial


Model: PAM 569
Maker: KW/V6F
Movement: Seagull ST2555
Dealer: Supermirrors


I think there is no need to introduce the V6F 569, Mysterio made an excellent review about it soon after it was released HERE, and a lot of discussion has been going on on this model HERE.
There's really nothing to add to what has been said, this is probably the absoulte best rep you can buy at the moment, period. :)

Before I decided to buy it I was a bit concerned that the CG on the "wrong" side would have bothered me on the wrist, I never had a destro after all. I must say that it doesn't look strange to me, and it also wears very comfortable on the wrist. I wouldn't mind buying another destro now.
I decided to go for the seagull version, then a purpose of this pictorial could be to show that there is no difference between this version and the more expensive 7750 version, despite some dealers like PT are calling this version "LITE". The only LITE thing here is the titanium used for the case! ;)
I recently read from two well respected members that the 7750 is a far better movement than the seagull, and from a technical perspective I can't do anything but agree, nonetheless my experience with the cheap seagull is more than positive: the watch keeps good time, is just as noisy as any other a7750, and the lower beat rate is not bothering me at all (maybe because I never stare at the second hand moving while I wear the watch :)).

That's it, enough talking already. On to the pics:
















































As usual any input and comment is very welcome, hope you enjoyed the pics!

:cheers:

You do know me, don't you? :)

I need to say though that the rep strap has surprised me a lot, it is very nice and rich in color, feels good at the touch and smells like real leather if I had this Bakeka lying in my drawer waiting for the right watch, I would have used the rep one for a while for sure.

Hehe I have to know you, I spent too much time drooling over your pics and thinking about how to combine best strap with my PAMs. I think I'm onto something lately that will slowly transform my PAMily with not too much money invested. :)

While rep strap may be of good quality, I don't like the combo with it. If it were genuine I wouldn't like it on that watch, something lighter fits much better on it IMHO: ;)

Really on the fence on this. Some of the pics look great, wish I could try on gen in person to see how it will look and fit in real life! I promised myself I won't go over 44mm with my small wrists!

The reviews from mysterio and kilowattore are increasing the sales of PAM 569

We should be proud of our PCTeam... really helpful

Thanks for your nice job, useful for everyone

ALE

BTW: one of the nicest gen PAMs and one of the best reps ever made
With a bit better finish of bezel knurling would be almost perfect !!

Just received mine from KW, very pleased but as you mention ALE the bezel knurling could be cleaner. Is there an easy way to mod this? Can the bezel be removed and a super fine file used to clean up the knurling? Looks like it just needs the inner V to be cleaned up a little?.

thanks again for everyone's input.

That will be almost impossible improving the automatic machining and get an uniform finsh and appearance
This is not only a finsh problem but the Ti materiAl is softer than gen and you cannot get a well polished finsh in the inner machined parts with such a soft material
Better leave it like that
