Help me decide

Recommended Posts

Nickfive

Ok guys I'm close to pulling the trigger on a new watch and the below 2 have caught my eye the most. At the moment I think I'm leaning toward the lighter tan faced 687, but I'd like your opinions :) I'm also thinking about swapping the bezel out for a plain smooth one.

 

Im fairly sure I saw a thread recently and someone quoted a TD that had just brought out the latest editions of these, but after a search I couldn't find the thread so any help with that would be appreciated.

 

On another note, thanks Greg for getting RWG back up and runnng, you don't realise how much you miss this place until it's gone ;)

I would get a space dweller.

 

But that is just me. Those two look the same, like every other PAM except that they put the dials in backwards.

Light one, it's much more characteristic.

Take care that there are 2 versions around, one with no "L Swiss L" (1st batch), one with right one (updated one)

I wouldn't be swapping the bezel as the engraved bezel is what makes these models different.

 

If they came in a 44 I'd have ordered one by now.

 

Oh and I prefer the 685.

Yeah I agree with you on the bezel, I think i'll scrap the idea of replacing it.

You sound like my mrs :lol:

 

I'm having a 'I don't like Rolex anymore' period in my life, shocking I know!

685 for me, the brown dial looks washed out in real life whereas the black dial sets off the brown strap.

are there any pics of the reps? its a crazy notion to decide which rep to buy based on pics of the gens.

 

 

 

I now this is not the flame free section and i'm trying to break this to you guys gently,,,,,,,, but!!

 

often the rep looks nothing like the gen....... there!! I've said it now............... the "report" button is over there ------------------>

I would pick the 687 personally. I already have a bunch of brown and black dialed PAM's, so it's time for something a little different.

Yeah they are the older version (without the 6oclock print). I've sent a couple emails out to the TD's so once I know more I'll post here. There's actually a lot of people interested in these by the sounds of it!
