Hi can anyone help me QC? I just copped a V4 from Puretime... I'm pretty sure there isn't any real V4 out there in the market yet but I'm trying my luck. Hope I got the most out of it. Let me know if I should greenlight this or reject this QC. And how many v4 parts did I get? I am hoping for a case v4...

Yeah I did but I didn't get any reply and the last activity there is like last month so I thought I could try my luck here to get some assistance.

It is impossible to tell the version from the angle of the pics
It seems at least a nice transition model, but I cannot assure it
The crown is V3 as usually
Sorry

Just seeing the thickness of the rim contour of the crown
V3 is thicker than gen like yours (but this is the usual crown in noob watches)
ALE
Thanks for the reply
btw i didn't post any QC pic O.O in your professional opinion, which strap would you choose for the Pam 111 v4 NOOB? i saw some peeps posted that the leather feel like crap haha!From what I've seen, it looks like most people just replace the strap.Thanks for the reply
InTime has one with a nicer asso strap but it is out of stock

Ryan told me the ASSO strap out of stock and no longer in production, is that true? anyone bought from Ryan and other TDs able to verify it? i guess next to ASSO the best is Rubber strap haha!
If Ryan said so then that's probably the case. So yeah, replacing it or going with a rubber strap will be your best bet. I was looking at the M2M strap sales earlier and there were a few genuine straps listed.

@ALE I was told by a dealer (Non-TD) in Singapore that the PAM111 movement doesn't fit properly in V4 case. This is reason 111 still using V3. This hogwash or maybe some merit to his statement?
Ok noted, i've did some searching around here and the rubber strap is the best choice, the leather straps are mediocre. I guess i will hang around m2m to get a new strap
thanks for the info.@groot Yes sir i got the Rubber strap, actually i'm just curious about how good the leather straps really is. After i did some reading it seems like Rubber is the best choice.
Let me guess, the non-TD is pushing the V3 on you?
Assolutamente leather by nature will darken over time. So even if you get it at a lighter shade, if you wear the strap, it's eventually going to darken or what they call "patina" on straps.

Would lead one to believe right! haha Actually, he said they're are a few more recent release PAM models that are closer to Gen than the 111 but they're more expensive - said 111 is still great option for the money regardless V3. He said 390 is using V4 case if I'm dead set on a V4 Case

This is not true
There are FEW PAM 11 with V4 case, but we have seen several of them with the usual movement
ALE
Which model did he mentioned about the one closer to gen?
He said the new XF 000 and 005 release is better than noob V3 case and if I like ceramic looking case choose 441 VS factory V2 new release
