Hi all,
I've got some really ueful info off this site since I joined so all can say is fair play to all, some really helpul and knowledgeable people on here! Reference threads useful although still hard to get head around all the terminology.

I have decided to purchase off the puretime website as there is good choice and seems to have good rep. I have narrowed down my decision to a few choices an I'm here to look for advice on which watch a first time Pam buyer should choose? I know there might be backlog in Pam111 stock?

Not much differance in these I know but if you can add anything
you think might be useful it would be appreciated, its tough to narrow down and make a decision! Normal life decisions aren't this hard!

My choices are : Pam 111m noob http://www.puretime.co/product/pam111-m-noob-best-edition-on-brown-leather-strap/


Pam176m noob http://www.puretime.co/product/pam176-m-noob-best-edition-on-brown-calf-leather-strap/


Pam177n Noob http://www.puretime.co/product/pam177-n-noob-best-edition-on-brown-asso-leather-strap/


All are between $258 and $308
Also thinking of purchasing an aditional black or dark brown leather strap for a bit of variety.

Hopefully this will be the start of a beautiful collection!

11 is not available right now. Any of the other 2 are nice.

You will not be disappointed with any of these options
You may be disappointed with the straps though
The rep asso is ok/pretty goof but most other rep leather straps suck
Good idea to get some extra straps but go aftermarket not rep for those
The rep rubber is great so a good idea to order the watch on one of those

Hi bowers
Concerning quality replica, both are Super reps.
If you get a PAM 111 N Noob V3 with really all improvements, you will be at 90% of the gen and with a PAM 177 from H maker or new Noob you can be at 87%. This is a subjective evaluation but with a lot of info.
Concerning durability:
Movement: the same
Case: Obviously the Titanium scratchs more easily than SS. But the Ti watches have character with some scratches too.

Sincerelly no dilema, I think you will get both sooner or latter. So no worries !!! LOL

Personally I prefer the stainless steel - scratches are almost erased with capecod... There is some sort of 'eraser' for ti but I haven't used it so can't comment on how good it is.

I have 112 and 111. Love them both.

So this would be the PAM111 V3:
http://www.torobravos.com/index.php?route=product/product&keyword=111&product_id=87

and this one from puretime is what version, it doesn't say v3 ??
http://www.puretime.co/product/pam111-m-noob-best-edition-on-brown-leather-strap/

so i am confused now :(

That's because the one you (and the OP) linked to on Puretime is the 111M version. Nobody seems to have noticed. The 111M is almost a year old I believe.

The V3 that everyone is talking about is the 111N V3 (version 3). Some places don't actually call it a V3. They might just say "Updated CG and Pre-V Hands" or "Newest Super 1:1 More Better Perfecto Version" so it can get pretty confusing.
