Getting ready to pll the trigger on one of these DSN PVD Pams.
I'm thinking anyone that owns either one might chime in. Suggestions and info would be appreciated.

For me it depends if you already have SS PAM.
If yes, i would say go for the 218A (the 195 is very near from a 111 or 005), cause color lume and inscription are more in the PVD style, IMO :wink:

Which watch can you pull off better? The 195 was limited to 200 watches and sold to Paneristi only. They have their name engraved on the back. These have shown up on the secondary market but for at least $15,000 to $20,000. The 218A is also a nice watch but this one was never made and there only exists 5 prototypes. I have the 195 and like it but I also have the 218 on order. Take a look at the 202A as well. It's a classic Pre-V but runs $60,000 when you can find it used.

@bazonkers......do you know how the lume is on the 218a. I'm wondering if it is like c1,or even less bright. The 195 is c3, and it burn pretty bright.

Thanks for the info.

Did you just order it from DSN? He hasn't responded to me in a week and I want to send him money.

Hey...i aint mad at nobody, never !
why should i ? only if somebody will try to scam me....i might get mad.
very good decision.....who wants to run around with a watch designed by a Steroid addict....and one of the worst actors ever?
what else do we have to suffer ....a OJ designed Rolex Bling ??

I was going to reply with "195" as well! I wonder if DSN can customize the caseback with your name on it like on the gen ^^

I don't have either one, but I like the looks of the 195 as well.
