Hi Ale,

went through your Pam Guide already and was basically decided to place an order for the PAM 005 N Noob V2. I like it very much due to the dial OP logo, and the fact that it has a solid case back, I think it's pretty gen-looking?

However, I am having second thoughts now that I see you do not list it as your preferred watch. LOL. It seems PAM 111 Noob v3 is gaining good reputations here.

Your thoughts on PAM111 vs PAM005?

Appreciate it

Such a fantastic list. You are amazing ALE. I'm glad the 299 is still on there.

I just sold a 417 brown dial from Sead locally. Pretty, stunning watch but the brown just doesn't work. It's not even a nice tobacco like my 564.

I think the guide needs to be updated that these are in stock again but it's a mixed bag. QC pics honestly didn't help and I wasn't even prepared to look for a brown dial.

I'm really finding my own calling to more of the Ti models. 359 should arrive in soon here but I see 351, 320, 172 in my future; Ti has just enough style with too much bling imo.

I'm actually more inclined to PAM005, but wondering why it's not listed under ALE's preferred list :p

Just because I don't like the lume structure of rep sausage dials (mainly "classic" reps like 000 and 005)
They are really inaccurate.
For this reason I never include these watches in my preferred list

Read the post #50 of this thread.

Below a copy of post #50

PAM 000 and PAM 005 are voluntarily removed from the list by myself
It is a “technical taste†matter

We all liked sausage dials many time ago, but nowadays the level of current reps is very high and we knows now much more about the flaws than some years ago. The more I study the structure of reps sausage dials the less I like them. It is not a matter of fonts or thickness inaccuracies, although it is existent some times, but a matter of lume structure

As above said the main problem of REP sausage dials is not font accuracy, is the own structure of application of the lume material
Rep makers are using, from the beginning, a completely different structure of lume material application. Therefore rep sausage dials can be never accurate.

Gen sausage dial is not at all sausage shaped: the dial surface has a deep cavity with upper edges clearly rounded and the lume material is applied filling that cavity, but the lume material remains always flat and a bit under the dial surface.
Rep sausage dial has a less deep cavity with less evident rounded upper edges and the lume material is applied raising the dial surface and with a clear "sausage" shape. More or less like showed in below pic.

Below pics, show clearly all above said. See the important differences (GEN I don't remember the source, REP is from Bozz)

Some time ago I liked rep PAM sausage dials, nowadays, after studying a little the matter I'm more and more disappointed by them. Indeed I never recommend these Super reps like 005 and 000 due to this inaccurate structure of the lume. But this is a taste matter as always. PAM 390 and PAM Boutique (417, 416....) are almost the same, but, although they have similar flaws, the sausage is a bit flatter for some reason, sausage is less evident, and these watches have other attractions like coloured lume, PIG logo, coloured dial..etc... you are no focussing the attraction in the lume. See the fantastic pics by Klockis in our review made in cooperation for PAM Boutique:
http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/pcteam-pam-boutique-145665?t=145665
you can realize in lume structure Section that the lume application is not exact as gen but is better than in PAM 000 and PAM 005 above showed.


I prefer a flaw in the movement better than a flaw in the dial (we are accepting everyday very inaccurate decorated movements). I repeat this is a taste matter .

But I respect all opinions and many sausage reps are indeed awesome
Above said is just my thoughts

ALE


For this reason I like more PAM 111 Noob V3 so far

How about the pam 372? I was always under the impression this is a great option for those fans of the 47mm

PAM 372 is a rep in evolution

The best case and dial are Noob but the movement is inappropriate seeing the current standards

The Clones have worse dial and case

I would wait for best versions to come
