looks the same as the others..... each will be different and unique though

Right, there is no update on the Carbotech material ever since its debut in the PAM616. Still the same 3-layer construction, the pattern will vary wildly depending on where the material was cut from the Carbotech block. But the pattern always appears that the curve opens on the right side, never on the left.

A noob question, the carbon patterns is some kind of coating or the base material of the case?
I mean, if you scratch it, you will still be able to see the pattern?

Noob question, I’ve been into AP’s but thinking about making the 960 my first pan. Does this need a crystal update like many of the AP’s?

As long as it is real carbotech, it is base material. There are cheaper “carbotech” reps that are just painted stainless, if you scratch those you will see the stainless.

I couldn't find the gen thickness online. Is this 14.5mm is accurate?

But the question is, what is the actual thickness of the rep? There are conflicting dimensions. superspark69 do you already have your PAM960? What's its actual thickness?
