Hi all,


Need your help.. I have these 2 PAM's sitting in my drawer which i acquired in a local trade awhile back along with other watches. They have since been damaged and would like to see if they are worth fixing. I've searched through ALE's guide and i cant determined which models these are.


Can you guys share your expertise? Model and possible maker? Im thinking the one in the brown strap is a PAM 320 but the movement in the back is different from ALE's guide. This has the CG missing otherwise the watch is working just fine. Would like to replace the CG for it if its worth it. Also, if you guys have any idea where i can find a replacement CG and screws that would be great! The black one I have no idea as it does not match anything in ALE's guide. the dial on this is crooked as the seconds dial came off and i tried to fix it but failed.. LOL... you can see the loose seconds hand inside the watch at the bottom.. Im thinking these are cheap canal versions but really don't know... thanks in advance for your help!

Left one looks like it wants to be 104, right one is 320 but with wrong movement as you said. I wouldn't spend money on repairing the left one as it looks like canal street and isn't worth investing in it but 320 seems to be a nice watch, maybe first version of 320. Try to ask any of TD's if they could source CG, I managed to get Noob CG from Sead some time ago. ;)

As shelby says right one is a PAM 320 with cheap Asian 23J. Inaccurate movement of course, but wrong date window and date font, inaccurate inscriptions on dial. Obviously GMT (if working) will be 24 hrs instead of 12 hrs. The rest is decent

Left one wants to be a PAM 104, but it is a bad rep and a cheap watch. It is no worth

Thanks ALE and Shelby! Appreciate the input! I've had these sitting in the drawer for awhile.. thought id look them up. Will use them to take it apart and learn how they work :) i've got a handful of new PAM's I bought in the last few weeks (390, 505, 389 and 288k) to use anyways... Bought all these after reading your PAM Guide ALE!! :) im hooked on PAMs now! lol
