alvyc 0 Posted July 1, 2015 i have it currently says ZF but was wondering if there are new reps of 499 out there. heard KW had one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mysterio 18 Posted July 1, 2015 i have it currently says ZF but was wondering if there are new reps of 499 out there. heard KW had one. There is, released four months later than the ZF release. Basically identical except the movement decoration of the ZF is oriented similar to that of gen, the paint applied at the movement is more refined, CG pin seems to be better placed (but this is only on the displayed watch so be mindful of this when you check the QCs).

ALE7575 24 Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) Update – 11 July 2015 New models included in PAM GUIDE: Last versions of PAM 382 Bronzo from May – June 2015 PAM 382 KW-V6Fac with P.9000 decorated Seagull NON-inverted KP9000-Seagull V2 The same as previous version but with more accurate and reliable movement. The best version available at this moment PAM 382 ZFac V4 improved and with P.9000 decorated A7750 Improved and NON-inverted ZP9000-V2.5 ZFac improves the bezel and CG, and uses a new improved Movement P.9000 decorated A7750 NON-Inverted with some improvements in accuracy. With this version, ZFac almost reaches the quality of last KW-V6Fac, but still remain inferior IMO. Also included in PAM GUIDE the Official Chemical Analysis of KW-V6Fac bronze material of KW-V6Fac PAM 382. Assuring in this way the quality of KW-V6Fac material KW PAM382 Bronze material – Official Chemical Analysis (the definitive answer) ****** http://www.replica-w...-answer)-****** http://www.rwg.bz/bo...showtopic=91901 http://www.repgeek.c...emical+analysis Enjoy the new reps ALE Edited July 11, 2015 by ALE7575 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,532 Posted July 11, 2015 I don't know where you manage to find the time for it but your work is great!!! Thanks mate! If only I have to suggest something, it is to structure your work in a tree shape (one post for each model under a dedicated directory instead of those 2/3 huge posts). They are now so big that tapatalk nearly crashes a phone (it makes it nearly unusable because of memory overhead) opening it. Also single posts for each model are much easier to maintain and catch. Any mod (or even an external guy like me) can help in that in case you'd like that too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ALE7575 24 Posted August 3, 2015 Update – 03 August 2015 New models included in PAM GUIDE: New reps of PAM 499 – Very nice option for PAM with WHITE dials lovers. With Luminor 1950 caseset with polished bezel and midcase. If you like big watches this 1950 44mm case wears more than a Bettarini Luminor 44mm. Model- PAM499 Q-series ZFac w/decorated A7750 NON –inverted improved ZP9000-V2.5 This ZFac rep is available from Sept 2014 but with the “old” decorated A7750 NON-inverted ZP3000-V2. Now improved with the ZP9000-V2.5 Since this change of movement was not announced by delaers or makers, you could get this nice rep with improved V2.5 or non improved V2 depending of the luck and the date of production (after March 2015). You should carefully inspect your QC pics to assure improved V2.5, much more accurate. See the complete details in PAM GUIDE. Model- PAM499 Q-series KW-V6Fac w/decorated A7750 inverted P9000 Magnificent rep with the well know and awesome case of KW PAM 359 but fitted with a decorated A7750 Inverted (already surpassed for NON-inverted decorations) Model- PAM499 Q-series KW-V6Fac w/decorated Seagull NON-inverted A7750 inverted KP9000-seagull V2 The same as previous KW rep but now fitted with a decorated Seagull NON-inverted. This is the best option from May 2015. Read PAM GUIDE for more details of these nice and interesting watches Enjoy the new reps ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A true Super rep But read the PAM GUIDE because not everything is nice at the transition times -PAM 177 P-series LUMINOR MARINA TITANIUM from Noob This rep previously released can be benefited by the new improvements from PAM 176 P-series. As above commented, read the PAM GUIDE because not everything is nice at the transition times -Read also some interesting WARNING REMARKS about the new 2015 casesets from Noob- KW and H maker. Be careful with QC pics Enjoy the new reps ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New version of a very well known rep, with a movement more accurate and reliable. Very good price and the best option from January 2015. - PAM 388 O-series ZFac O-series w/decorated A7750 NON-inverted Improved ZP9000-V2.5 New version of the ZFac PAM 388 with new and more accurate movement. Good option for A7750 lovers. 2- PAM 386 LUMINOR MARINA 1950 3 Days Automatic COMPOSITE Last versions of PAM 388 from KW-V6Fac and ZFac - PAM 386 M-series KW-V6Fac Ti+DLC w/decorated Seagull NON-inverted KP9000-Seagull V2 New version of a very well known rep, with a movement more accurate and reliable. Very good price and the best option from June 2015 together with below indicated rep from ZFac - PAM 386 O-series ZFac Ti+DLC w/decorated A7750 NON-inverted Improved ZP9000-V2.5 New version of the ZFac PAM 386 with new and more accurate movement. The best option from June 2015 together with previously commented rep from KW. Good option for A7750 lovers. 3- CHANGES IN PAM GUIDE Since there are a lot of versions, mainly for all the reps automatic fitted with P.9000 decorated movements I have started and tried a new organization for the data-sheet, only for above reps PAM 388 and PAM 386, in order to make more clear and easy the consults. I have changed the presentation of the EVALUATIONS, ordering the reps by release date and making a summarized but detailed description of each version. I have also introduced this description in the inner text, before the comments and reviews about each version. I have ordered REP LINKS by versions instead of dealers and I have organized the versions by release date I hope that will be easier and clearer If this modification works fine and better, I will apply this organization for all new reps included and other important ones. Any comments would be appreciated Enjoy the new reps ALE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
