Nickfive 4 Posted April 25, 2017 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 ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted April 25, 2017 Would be the 687 for me. Liking that dial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NCRich 13,773 Posted April 25, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,509 Posted April 25, 2017 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) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShovelnTC 31 Posted April 25, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and I prefer the 685. Yeah I agree with you on the bezel, I think i'll scrap the idea of replacing it. 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. You sound like my mrs I'm having a 'I don't like Rolex anymore' period in my life, shocking I know!

Duzza 182 Posted April 25, 2017 685 for me, the brown dial looks washed out in real life whereas the black dial sets off the brown strap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markeym3 2 Posted April 25, 2017 687 with the right strap would look totes amazeballs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nikosaldente 630 Posted April 25, 2017 687 Nick! Super gradient dial! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zevet 0 Posted April 25, 2017 I am seemingly among the few that'd go for the 685 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,754 Posted April 25, 2017 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 ------------------> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted April 25, 2017 There are pics of the rep out there if one cares to look ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daffy 105 Posted April 25, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nickfive 4 Posted April 25, 2017 I'll be posting pictures of the rep versions soon. As gentle says above i only want the versions with the 'L SWISS L' at 6oclock. I'll get back to you :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,754 Posted April 25, 2017 trusty has them, both versions, but that dial in the video is awful. http://www.ttw-138.c...oducts_id=16783 music is quite funky tho ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nickfive 4 Posted April 25, 2017 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
