WatchMe007 0 Posted July 3, 2011 What to do, what to do? Mary has a nice PAM 112 for around $250. Then there are the basic looking, beautifully modded basic PAMs that are $800 or $900. And still other hit the $1500 mark or more. A gen PAM 112 can be had for $4200. I am oh so very confused. My PAM 236k was less than $400 and it I get as much pleasure out of it as a $10,000 gen watch. I would happily take it off and hand it to a PAM owner to let them look at it. I have spent up to $800 on a rep and I am very pleased with the movement etc. What if I wanted to get a base watch, then send it to the mod experts to be certain I am getting what I want? I want gen look and feel. Something I can take off and hand to all but an AD and have it pass "the test". Rambling over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted July 3, 2011 Have you bought a new H-factory PAM yet? They are damn nice, and if you can secure an 005 when they come out again (with a closed caseback) I doubt anyone would ever call you out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
houndoggie 58 Posted July 4, 2011 Pam 005k or Pam 176m. At this point those modded Pams are not worth the money anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted July 4, 2011 At this point those modded Pams are not worth the money anymore. I agree. I feel bad for the guys who have spent loads on modding with Little Hero and other parts, but the new PAMs are a step above anything before, it seems, and with a decent movement sorted out (rather than the slightly unreliable low-beat they are using at the facory), you would be hard-pressed to call them out as rep. And I believe I read somewhere that someone had one of them WR tested to 20 atmospheres and it passed!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like the vintage VDB's that people paid thousands for - now you can get the parts to make one that is quite a bit better for $500 (if you have a solid cb). The casebacks, dials, cgs, plexis, etc... they are ALL better than anything that could be had from him, and for a fraction of the cost..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted July 4, 2011 I guess it's like any industry - early adopters always pay more! lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
