Hello mates,

I am new here and drooling by seeing QC pics here. So i am gonna buy my first pam and need recommendation from seniors. I would like a best possible pam rep pls. I am thinking of getting 111N v3 from noob as people say it is the best here. But its display case might tell others that its a rep??? 000N v2.5 has a closed case back and its more like a gen??

For a rep, is the closed case back better than display case back??
Please choose me one, mates.

Thanks and regards,
Kevin

My suggestion is to buy both and sell the one you do not want. Having owned both models I can tell you they are totally different watches.
Do not worry about one being a better rep than the other. These two are both very good. Closed or open caseback doenst matter.

I eventually liked the darker dial and sausage better than the 111 dial. But the 111 is more classic and the 000 probably more casual.

You might want to take a look at the pam 390 noob v3 as well. Super rep and I have to say it looks very classy.

I recently purchased a 111 v3 and love it. however If i could do it over I would buy the 510 KW. It is roughly the same price, has fatter numbers and nicer movement decoration on the back. I doubt you could go wrong with any of these.

PAM 111 Noob V3 is a Super replica and the most known PAM but not the closer to gen
Display caseback makes no easy the job of a rep maker

If you are looking for accuracy you should go to closed caseback
PAM 029 Noob V2, PAM 243 Noob V2, PAM 104 O Noob, PAM 299 O Noob, PAM 297 Noob, PAM 390 Noob and even PAM 088 O Noob and PAM 356 Noob (7753) are closer to gen than PAM 111
PAM 292 J Noob and PAM 288 H maker are good options too

But don't get very worried about accuracy but about gen-like appearance, and there are many replicas not completely accurate (like PAM 111 Noob V3) but with a strong gen-like appearance.
Very accurate reps above mentioned have very good gen-like appearance too

With very high gen like appearance you should consider too:
KW PAM 417-411-416
KW PAM 312-359
KW PAM 388
KW PAM 505
KW PAM 346
PAM 176-177 Noob

He wrote the Pam review guide lol, what you're reading there IS his exact thoughts. All he's going to be doing is repeating what is already written..

As above said all my thoughts are included im PAM GUIDE

Regarding PAM 000 I like less and less the rep sausage dial of PAM 000 and PAM 005, their structure of lume application different from gen one is bothering me more and more. But this is a taste matter both are Super reps

It is no possible to say only one, they are very similar in quality and because it depends on personal taste

As above said you cannot go wrong with every rep above mentioned

since the flaw of 111 is mainly in the movement and the flaw of 000 is the structure and thickness of lume application, i guess i will just buy the 111n v3 noob. No one sees its movement on my wrist but the dial.

Thanks folks.
With love.

To be purist PAM 111 has more flaws than movement:

Consider a 390 it has a great dial and is very high end rep with a closed case back.
