{*PCTeam*} PAM 111 Noob V3 - Discussion, Compilation of data, Wristshots, QC pics

[Bozz]

Like I said, I thought it was a "fat" crown too but the dealer insists it's "thin". I'm curious to hear what one of the forum experts has to say.

"Fat" crown for sure mate. Suggest to read the ALE's guides...

Here' a QC photo of the crown I received yesterday. I had my doubts but the dealer insists it is the "thin" crown.

This is a CLEAR "FAT" crown. No doubts

I've accepted the watch anyway. The fact that the dealer insisted it was a thin crown is my biggest concern. Once I receive it I'll post a dealer review telling the story.

Thanks for your help - Ken

The gen has "slim" crown
But PAM 111 V3 comes with Fat crown usually like many Noob Luminor 44mm reps (PAM 390 comes with "Slim" crown)
Then no need to be concerned if the watch comes with "slim" (but your pic is a FAT)

Im trying but he appears to be very busy at the moment and although Im happy with his price and (apparent reputation), just cant get him to send me an invoice or payment instructions. Any other suggestions?

OK - I finally placed my order and got QC pics very quickly - tried to post them here but assuming waiting for approval on post (as I guess Im too new). Would love to get an opinion on the pics - they look OK to me, only thing obvious is the CG pin doesnt look flush which is relatively common. Ill see if I can post a link?

nothin wrong with that. CG pin can be a litte raised or not, can't say for sure from those pics. And if it is, it's just minor and very easy fix if it annoys too much. I'd say go for it.

Looks like mine and I'm delighted so go for it.

Just a question guys. Will it be possible to replace the v3's swan neck with hmakers?

Lastly H maker watches are fitting the same movements and Swan Necks than Noob

If you find soem "old" H maker, micrometric screw is replaced immediately
Swan Neck spring would nned some adaptation because the distance between holes is a bit different. Maybe it is no worth

thansk for the clarification mate. imo, that's the easiest flaw to be found first on the movement

It's been said here many times. Anyone who can spot a bad swan neck knows their watches - you're not going to fool them! Spending a lot of money on these mods leads to a very expensive, slightly better Rep than what you started with. Fortunately, most people don't know the difference between a swan neck and a case guard so you have little to worry about!

hi all,
ordered my first PAM 111 V3 Noob from Tony
he sent the photo, what do you think guys?

 

[replicawatch21]

looks good iskander!

 

[tom_cat]

it looks ok to accept @iskander

 

[ALE7575]

Iskander's PAM 111 looks good IMO

[cw_ek9]

Can I still get the PAM111 with the Y-incabloc anywhere? So far i've asked a few vendors and it has been sold out. Thanks in advance!

 

[Iskander]

Buy regular PAM111 V3 Noob.
And why Y-incabloc actually needed?
Any watchmaker will determine the replica immediately.
The remaining 99% of people do not even know what it is.
