ilgjgas3 0 Posted August 12, 2017 I bought mint conditioned VSF's PAM 616 Special Edtion for 175$ for M2M deal. Considering newone's price for 500$, It is not too bad deal.... But The only problem is troubled. It looks good itself, but its forged carbon patterned case is different from gen's case carbon pattern. How Can I buy better case?

Genius 281 Posted August 12, 2017 There were some reps that xame out before the gen did and gad completely wrong carbon finish, maybe you got one of those and that's why it was so cheap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadApple 13,081 Posted August 12, 2017 Wait until you have qualified to sell on here and see if some other mug who can't use their eyes before their wallet buys it. You can then put that money towards one that the TD sends you green button QC pics for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought when you asked the question in RWI, you meant the number of stripes on the watch, which is less than the ones on the gen. But clearly, as your picture shows, that the watch is made of a totally different form of carbon material. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But for most replica watch collectors, it is not a good replica. It may be great looking watch, but not a good replica. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
