Hello guys,
I am searching for the good PAM with the closed case back. What are my choices out there? I was looking at PAM 090 with the closed case back. Are they any good?
Thank you for any advice.

The 061 is quite good. It would need the "standard" relume and cannon pin fix....

DSN's 005 is good and wouldn't need a relume or cannon pin fix, but the logo is too big.

As hooligan mentioned, 61D is awesome.

I also recommend -

001B
002D
010D

Very close to authentic - with the exception of recessed pin and lume (and other minor flaws).

44mm case - PAM001B

40mm case - PAM050 (comes with the correct "c" series case)

Are you referring to DSN`s or standard reps?

I was referring to Standard reps. DSN's sausage dials in general are a little off (font, proportion, etc), not that people can notice when it's on your wrist. The most accurate ones are always standard rep (with the exception of sandwich dials) modded by Vaccum, Ziggy, etc. 010D I was referring to was actually DSN though. Pretty damn close. I would actually prefer C1 lume over C3 though.

Thank you all for the replies. So if I go with Joshua Asian 061 would be a good choice, or should I consider Swiss?
Thanks.

That depends on which Asian 6497 is being used. Get some pics of the current movement in his Asian version and we can provide some more intelligent feedback.

I own a couple of watches with that movement, and they've been running well so far.

I own a 61D from Joshua (it's with Vaccum now for modding ;)), but I went with the Swiss version though. Since it's hidden in the caseback, noone will really be able to tell. Movement experts can confirm how good that asian movement is - from my own experience with a couple of watches with that exact movement, and they've been running well so far. They beat at a faster rate I believe.
