A small Pam 389 review

Recommended Posts

Pihlippe

Found this randomly on Trusty Time website some weeks ago and liked it.

With a little searching, I found out a little more about the Pam 389 and ordered one.

 

The gen is made of titanium and has a closed back and was released in December last year.

This rep is probably built on the Pam 305 Submersible, only the bezel and dial is changed.

 

MOVEMENT: Asian Seagull 25J Automatic Movement, Cut Out Design Rotor as per Genuine

CASE DIAMETER: 47mm

THICKNESS: 17mm

DIAL COLOR: Black Dial and seconds subdial at 9:00

CASE MATERIAL: Brushed Solid Stainless Steel 316

BRACELET: Rubber Strap with Pre-V Tang Buckle, Press Release Function for Strap and Bracelet Installation

FRONT GLASS: Synthetic Sapphire

BACK GLASS: Display Case Back with Detailed M Series Serial No Engraving

BEZEL: Unidirectional Rotating Diver Ceramic Bezel

HACK MOVEMENT: Yes

Clasp TYPE: Pre-V Buckle

DATE INDICATOR: At 3:00 position

 

I did not think the rubber strap that comes with it was particularly comfy, so I put on a black one from my Pam 300.

The lume is not the best i'v seen, so someone will probably want to relume it.

 

Overall I think this is a cool watch and one of the few I've gotten comments twice, from my customers at work.

Are you looking for a more gen like, you have to hope that a V2 is on the way though. :)

 

Here are some pictures I took this weekend.

Thanks

Love this. Noticed it on the wristcheck thread. I want one.

 

I might wait until there is a closed caseback for this though.

Great review mate, thanks for sharing !

 

These are a nice looking piece, nearly bought one few months back but I'd struggle with size I reckon, up for some wrist shots too if anyone has any!
