Drwildcat15 0 Posted April 19, 2013 Hello everyone, First time posting but have been reading around a lot lately and have become very interested in watches. As of right now I have a gen Brietling for Bentley that I got as a graduation present, but it's pretty much too big for most situations. I have a PAM 161 rep that I bought about 2 years ago before doing much research, I know it's not a great rep, but it's held up pretty well with no problems. Lastly I just recieved a rep PAM 292 from puretime that I really enjoy, it looks and feels great. So getting to my dilemma, I'm trying to figure out which of these two watches the JLC NSD or the PAM 243 I should get based on my current watches. I want this watch mainly as a beater/wear around watch and expect to waterproof it so it can be my go anywhere/beach wrist piece. I really like panerai's but am considering a change of pace. If you wouldn't mind, please give your opinion and reasons why. Thank you in advance. Cheers!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conx 0 Posted April 19, 2013 Jlc in my opinion,no question. Why have another Pam which all look the same, get something different and the jlc is a stunning rep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dainese 0 Posted April 20, 2013 The jlc is great... I had issues with mine upon receiving. But a service fixed all of that. I read reports that it was quite waterproof out of box. I think on rwi. But pressure test always first. Sent from my GT-P6800 using Tapatalk HD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't WP mine but as d said they are pretty good ootb, as far as the strap goes it's really nice feels great on the wrist, wouldn't take it in the water though unless quick dip as the back is leather mate.
