Hi, after a couple of months i'm looking for my second rep.
The first is a wonderful pam243 noob v3. Everyday i wear my PAM and i'm really surprise about feelings that it gives to me.
Gen feeling, solidity and quality are amazing.
Now i'm putting my trigger on another rep and i want the same feelings nothing less.
At the moment my eyes are on:

- Audermars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore diver
- Omega CrPO
- Omega LMPO
- PAM 029
- PAM 111
- Rolex Sea Dweller
- Rolex Deepsea Sea Dweller
- Rolex Submariner

Do you think that they are at the same quality level as PAM 243?
Any other?
Thanks

Thank you Ale. I can't believe that a watch is better than my 243 :)...
I know that PAM rep are really good, but can i expect the same quality in the other brand that i mentioned?

The reps you are mentioning are awesome too.
Leaving aside Omega and Sea Dweller, I own all others and they are really good
AP Diver last version are fantastic
Omega, mainly LMPO, are impressive
Rolex are good but they are a bit boring IMO. I don't wear my Rolexes even gens. But this is a taste matter.

Go for Pam or AP Diver and i believe you will be able to get the WOW feeling again.

The WOW feeling is what i'm looking for.

Then you should listen to Ale advice. He knows what he is talking as he have plenty of knowledge not only for Pam watches but also many other brands, i'm pretty sure you will be able to get the "WOW" feeling again.:thumbsup:

Some reps of Rolex are really good, Noob and other makers
Regarding LMPO bracelet I really don't know
Anyway you should ask these questions in Rolex and Omega Section to get a better answer

A lot of the rollie Noob reps are great but the lack of the platinum numbers in the bezel is a bit of a giveaway (although there is a tutorial on how to fix that). The AP diver v6 is a stellar rep but wears a bit bulkier than most PAMs. Omegas I'm not too sure about. I have a smp300 ceramic and its a great rep and, in my opinion, very close to the gen.

As for other PAM reps, the 029 looks amazing and is being rated as incredibly accurate. The 448sc is a stunner and as long as you dont mind the inaccuracies of the movement, its gorgeous.

To keep the WOW feeling, from you list i recommend - AP Diver, 45mm CrPO, DSSD, and any PAM ALE suggests - but keep in mind, not all PAMs are about the WOW

Thank you braith7, why do you suggest me CrPO and not LMPO?

Sorry i should have explained, i guess it depends on you definition of WOW :) , but for me, even though the LMPO is more accurate, the larger CrPO has more presence or POP on the wrist (especially the Pumpkin).

I love my LMPO as well but it doesnt get the attention my Pumpkin does. But as ALE said, ask in the Omega section for more input (Mr Pap is the Omega ALE :) )

As for PAMs, i find the same thing, even though my 111 is more acurate, it doesnt POP like my Daylight (196), but the 111 is more classic.... it depends on what you want at the time.

Get them all :)
