LightGeek 25 Posted December 12, 2013 Now to figure out who to keep and who to fire... 505 - 386 - 504 All KW latest versions. $300, $400, $200 respectively I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheTinMan 13 Posted December 12, 2013 I would keep that 505, auto with date trumps the hand wind and no date of the 504 - my opinion. That 386 is sweet looking though. I still prefer the 505 above the others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Porsche111 0 Posted December 12, 2013 Why is there such a big price discrepancy with those 3 watches? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightGeek 25 Posted December 12, 2013 Why is there such a big price discrepancy with those 3 watches? Because... they're different? That's easy if you read about them. The 505 is standard price at $300. The 504 is hand wound AND on special. The 386 is just "cutting edge". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFleischer 4,355 Posted December 12, 2013 Keep the 505- great watch. Maybe the 386 too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheesemonger 0 Posted December 13, 2013 My vote would be keep 504 and 386. Sell 505. However, all 3 look great, so I know it is not an easy decision to have to make. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrenches&watches 0 Posted December 13, 2013 Love my new 504, the quality is very impressive, brown DLC subtle and perfectly matched with the dark oiled asso. I'm only trading it in if they do a composite version. The 505 is on my list as well. Let go of the 386 and hold the funds for the soon to be released (fingers crossed) full ceramic bracelet tuttonero! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cogwatch 1 Posted December 13, 2013 I would keep that 505, auto with date trumps the hand wind and no date of the 504 - my opinion. That 386 is sweet looking though. I still prefer the 505 above the others. I don't mind handwinds but the seconds subdial on the 504 looks funny. I agree, the seconds subdial on the 504 looks really small on that extra large face. I can't comment on the 386, but I have a KW 505 and it's awesome. Incredible finish, detail, and quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted December 13, 2013 I have the 505 too and it immediately became my favourite watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightGeek 25 Posted December 14, 2013 386. Changed to a lighter, softer, Asso strap. I love sandwich dials... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gigahertz15 0 Posted December 14, 2013 I would keep the 386. I don't think there is any point keeping all 3, unless you are a huge PAM fan, as they all look too similar with the PVD and brown straps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like to get all variations of a watch to ensure I keep the one I really want. I like that setup. I will have to try that out, so I think you should sell me your 505 so I can run a side by side with the 504 I have on the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightGeek 25 Posted December 14, 2013 ii thought they were DLC not PVD? PVD is the process. DLC is the coating. I cannot be certain they are actually all DLC. Like saying they are "painted" vs "black paint". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeterPotamus 2 Posted December 14, 2013 those are my 2 PAM keepers... So, for me you should keep the 505 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeavyKrush 16 Posted December 14, 2013 My votes for the 504. Just don't like the date or the CG on the 386. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightGeek 25 Posted December 14, 2013 My votes for the 504. Just don't like the date or the CG on the 386. But but but that's the only watch I can use your strap with (finally!) Speaking of which, let me get on that now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightGeek 25 Posted December 14, 2013 The 504 is nice and thin (relatively speaking) but far too large. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
