This is an old replica version of PAM 305 L-series from January 2012
It is made in real Titanium, with correct date wheel and window and fitted with A7750 movement. Current price new is between 328 and 368USD. This price will decrease when the final release of the new ZFac version.
It was the first "good" replica of this watch, well built in the date of the release, but far from the quality of current replicas
When PAM GUIDE was released it was evaluated as a First Class rep bordering lower status, nowadays this evaluation should be reviewed and downgraded. Now, as above commented, we have the Zfac Q-series version, fitted with NEW decorated A7750 ZP9000 V2 for about 428 USD and overall much better. When I introduce this new rep in PAM GUIDE I will have to downgrade the evaluation of that old rep. L-series
Dial dots are very inaccurate, bezel knurling is not close to gen, bezel markers are very flush wit the bezel, working of the bezel rotation was really bad, CP was much bigger, inaccurate pearl, inaccurate lug shape, inaccurate lever, weak lume, and of course very inacurate A7750 movement showed through a display caseback.

Besides your watch has very bad conservation and bezel markers seem very damaged and sunken.
All depends on the price you have paid. IMO it would not be worth more 125-140 USD. so far

Sorry to say that but I think you are asking for a sincere opinion and this is just mine

That is brilliant Ale, really appreciate that.

Value is of no consequence, as I won't be selling it. Neither is condition, I wear it everyday and it gets bashed about, as you can see. In fact, I can worry about it even less now lol

Thanks again
