ALE7575 24 Posted January 10, 2016 Update 10 January 2016 New models included in PAM GUIDE: KW-V6Fac P-series w/ Asian 23J decorated like P.999 Nice attempt from KW. Unfortunately the slim thickness of the gen Manifattura P.999 movement and the display caseback don’t allow a better evaluation. Very well made rep but it has some important flaws. Anyway nice rep for small wrist and for women loving PAMs. Enjoy the new reps ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmshen 0 Posted January 30, 2016 Hi Ale! how can find the PAM514 on good quality? Thanks Panos You joined in 2012 but this is your first post? That's weird. The 514 hasn't been repped yet to my knowledge. The 512, its little brother, has. People have been saying that it's only a matter of time because of the 512, but they've been saying that for awhile now, so who knows. (Taking the time to learn how to research for yourself will help you in your searches immensely) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steph Deux 0 Posted May 24, 2016 Well, Ale, your simple bible has managed to take HOURS and HOURS out of my life. Ummmm, thank you? I am continuously amazed by the thing. Such exacting work. Thank you again. For the Excel spreadsheet (which I just found, MORE of my life gone, HA!) Have you considered adding a rating per watch? 1-5 or something? Or maybe just putting "Super Rep", "First Class", et cetera? Forgive me if that's been discussed before. I would be willing to donate some time if you wished. Thanks again.

ALE7575 24 Posted June 12, 2016 Update 12 June 2016 New model included in PAM GUIDE: PAM 064 LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1000m - PAM 064 C-series from H maker w/ A7750 New 2016 rep version of the nice old PAM 064 C-series fitted with A7750 This is a very interesting rep of a nice and eye-catching watch with Tritium type lume It is no easy to copy an old model with many hand finished parts and aged Tritium type lume. H maker has done a very good job, but this new rep is based in the case and dial of PAM 087 and therefore has some added flaws over the own flaws of PAM 087. The result is a nice watch with less accuracy than PAM 087 and some evident flaws on the front view Enjoy the new rep ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ALE7575 24 Posted July 7, 2016 Update 08 July 2016 New models included in PAM GUIDE: 2015 Versions of PAM 392 and PAM 393 42mm from KW-V6Fac and ZFac PAM 392 - KW-V6Fac Q-series w/decorated Seagull NON-inverted KP9000-Seagull V2 PAM 392 - ZFac O-series w/decorated A7750 NON-inverted Improved ZP9000-V2.5 PAM 393 - KW-V6Fac Q-series w/decorated Seagull NON-inverted KP9000-Seagull V2 PAM 393 - ZFac O-series w/decorated A7750 NON-inverted Improved ZP9000-V2.5 All above commented reps are good attempts from the makers, but 42mm rep Luminor cases are much less accurate than 44mm. Besides, these reps have still some obvious flaws which don’t allow higher evaluations. Enjoy the new reps ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vjay33 0 Posted December 8, 2016 Looking for a reliable and bullet proof PAM Luminor biggest case I can get with Miyota 9015 movement if there is such an animal. I have an authentic that I am trying to get a sister timepiece for so I can travel with the REP and save the condition of the AUTH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maron 0 Posted December 24, 2016 thank you @Ale7575. An invaluable tool that I have just begun using the last two weeks as I search for my first PAM. Unfortunately at the moment I can't make use of it and I'm eager to place an order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ALE7575 24 Posted December 26, 2016 Complete PAM GUIDE is not available outside RWI Anyway it is only few days it is down Patience is always the first rule in this hobby Do you imagine if I would have had the same patience writing the GUIDE ??
