Want a second Pam, what to go for?

[n0ble]

I currently have a PAM111v3 which is a beautiful watch and love the display case.

Now i would like a second but i'm not sure what to go for.

I really like,

and

But i'm put off by the fact that the movement its completely different through the display case.

Any ideas on what to go with for my second PAM?

Thanks

Do you like chronos? Submersibles? 47mm?

I do like Chronos, but i'm not a fan of 47mm watches.

They do not look right on my wrist :-(

Hey bud,

I'm in the same position as you, looking for my second PAM. ALE's advice is to go through the PAM reference guide, see which are first class/super-reps if accuracy to gen is important to you.

Regarding display casebacks - not too many will be accurate to the gen due to in-house movements not yet being replicated. These will be classified as first class reps. The 253 regatta you listed above is awesome - I want one too. That dial is fantastic and the colour is different for a PAM. Also can't be a super-rep though, as it has a flyback complication which cannot yet be replicated by available movements, and also the display caseback.

My choice - because I have a 111N, I want something very different. I'm keen on a PAM292 - the black ceramic is fantastic, its a super-rep, and the Radiomir looks very different to the Luminor Marina.

Good luck with your decision. Let us know what you choose.

Thanks for the info Dom, much appreciated

If only the 253 did not have a display case it would be an immediate purchase.

I do like the colour of the 292 but i'm personally not keen on the case design.

Haha, i didn't think this would be such a hard decision!

I think i like this one too.

That PAM360 is pretty new and interesting. Lots of discussion about it here: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/pcteam-noob-360-127533

... and here: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/pcteam-dials-pam-131720

Regarding the PAM253 - if you want something similar with a closed caseback, take a look at the PAM332 in ALE's reference guide:

 

[n0ble]

That is very nice.

So i'm now down to the final 3 choices but unfortunately can only chose one

PAM332

or
PAM164

or
PAM308

I have gone with the PAM164. Just ordered

good choice , just got mine from MR 2 days ago.

Thanks I'm looking forward to getting it.
I think one if the PVD/DLC watches are on the cards in the future, maybe a 360.
