What do you mean there's no such thing? There's no way that nice man in Canal Street lied to me, he even sold me a special colourway and case set!

Well, actually some of them, for any normal person, are practically 1:1.

Take the Tudor Ranger for instance: not only it's a true super rep, indistinguishable from the gen unless you really use a 10x loupe and know exactly how some very few little details are done (such as the decimillimitre differences in the engraving deep), but also has the clone movement of the gen, even with the same engravings (mine has them), and the only difference is in the incabloc spring and in the regulator stud.

Similarly for the Tudor BlackBay or for certain Pams :)

They would give hard time to even connoisseurs of the models...

I enjoy the posts from new members looking for a 1:1 rep for under $100.

Thanks guys. You guys saved me from a potential disaster. Will be getting from puretime or chazingtime dot co for 348usd. I was about to fork almost 600 prior to posting here.

 

Fine, but remember, it's chinese new year, and also there are not TD's here so if you have any issues the mods cannot help. You should probably join RWI if you plan on buying from them

 

What do you mean by TDs? Sorry new to all this

I wasn't specifically referring to you, just making a general comment.

I can only speak for the last three reps I bought, in the last year. First a Noob 114060 V2 (cost $248), Omega Moon watch fois (cost $246) and finally my BP Sea-Dweller (cost $239)... All straight out of the box are phenomenal reps (sure there are always slight flaws) and all cost under $250.

 

I don't feel comfortable spending more than $350 on toy watches. I have in the past, I won't lie, but I wore a younger man's clothes. Now for custom built watches or TC builds or JJ, it is totally worth it.

 

My opinion

You can't distinguish them until you get to touch their boobs. So I just presume they're 1:1 (only perky). :lol:

We are talking about two different PAMs although both can feel right at home in either formal or casual settings with the right strap.. The PAM312 is a very popular contemporary model, gen or rep. The PAM441 is a newer model with the ceramic case giving it a certain flair. Either way you can't go wrong.
