small but growing stable of a beginner's collection

[Cheesemonger]

Thought I would try my hand at photography, but I still need to take some lessons. Just can't get lighting correct (these were even worse in a light tent). All with point and shoot camera, so I must need to play around with settings a bit more.

388 (on rep calf, but Simona gator incoming for it), 504 (going off to get modded) on rep assolutamente, 127 (going off to get modded) on gen nubuck, 243 on Oracle202 horween and 005 on Migliore Buffalo leather (which is the softest!)


so, what next? thinking 288 might be best.

Very nice PAM-s mate, that JV looks amazing! The 288 is a beauty as well, its a true super rep because of the closed CB.

Thanks! Yep, the 288 and now I think the 088 are next in line for decision time for me!

Nice collection!

There's some threads in this section (stickies)-------> http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=26 on photographing watches. Some good information.

I have found that the picutres come out better if you have a submariner in the group!

Really NICE collection you have got

I was just going to recommend you a PAM 088
Well, you were faster... LOL..
I assure you that you will buy both sooner or later

What about a PAM 390 ?? or 417 KW ??
Or 299 ? 312 KW maybe? or do you prefer 359?
No, better PAM 104
OMG !!

Thanks! That looks to have quite a bit for review. I am going to dig through those pinned topics and see if I can come up with some good tips to help me out.

I am not a submariner guy, but I do have the polar explorer II. Was going to put it on its own when my photo skills are better.

Hehe, yes all of those are good candidates. I think after studying the guide a bit more tonight, that the 088 and then 288 are the next up. I appreciate all of the recommendations. The 088 looks to just stand out nicely as a GMT.

After that, I think a gen assolutamente strap for the 504 is in order (unless another JV comes along).

Sweet, nice group.

You need at least one bracelet model though, any more leather and you'll have a PETA picket line outside your house

Daylight, Daylight, Daylight.... ooh or a Tuttonero!

I was trying to see if I could go with a bracelet model, but for some reason I am having trouble picturing the PAM bracelet on my wrist. Something about these just tells me strap is the way to go on PAMs for myself.

love the 388 and 504!!!!!!!
may I ask where do you send the 504 to get modded?

 

[ssclassa80]

Psycho means submersible I think, but you have a 243. 024 is high on my list.

Katt is fixing mine (he is listed in the watchmaker section here on RWI). Getting the cannon pin, hour gear and hands changed. On the 504, the cannon pin is not flush to the hands.

Aha! I saw submariner and immediately thought Rollie. 024 is very nice! Great model. Has a very classy look to it on a sub. I wish there was a HQ rep of the 193. I would like that one as a sub, but not low grade (I don't care about the depth gauge issue, but would want the case, etc very nicely done).

You have to have an Explorer 1. Looks great on a nato, bracelet and strap. It's the one I will never part with.
