The forged carbon ones, of course.

i'm not too bothered by the display caseback as i hardly ever take off my watch in front of other people. And i'm sure if they wanted to sink money in it, they can replicate the movement details. But i seriously doubt they will.

Like you mentioned, they're both different styles. But i would get the safari first. There are other nicer dive watches, imo. So if i change my mind halfway through...

Since you're a noob, you should be taught the golden rule. "No pics = it didn't happen."

Nice! looks like you really really like Omega

Thank you so much for guiding me to find out who/what Yuki is!! Been puzzling me for a while!

if you're worried about bling, have you considered the 177? That said, i don't think the 111 is blingy at all. it's just a polished dress watch and can really up the dressiness factor of an outfit.

http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/pam115f-lite/ Im thinking about getting this model. Is there a non-lite version around? how is the lite version inferior to a ultimate version? does the same apply for the 111 lite?

I started out just wanted to 'try out' PAMs. I thought i'd just have 1 or 2 and be done with them. Boy, was i wrong!! With so many different options to choose from, any slight variations to minor details makes a watch just as desirable, PreA, PreV, DSN, DW all having their own distinctive features! And that's not even considering strap options! Now i can see how PAM owners end up with so many watches! Curse you, Panerai!

Is either of these worth getting? Or at least accurate enough?

I know what you mean, slask. Just the other day my i had a friend who bought a 200$ DKNY watch and everyone was saying how he's willing to spend big bucks on a watch. You should see the reaction over an entry-level TAG. I didn't wish to spoil his good mood by saying he overpaid massively.

I'm about the pull the trigger on a 026k, and (un)fortunately, my gal wants one too! She does not, however, wear her watches on her right hand. So what's the non-Destro equivalent to the 026? And is there a H-factory version? PVD and sandwich dial are the most important features here.

I'm glad there are fakes like these in the market. I refuse to call them reps because they're too original to be replicas of anything. As long as people keep conjuring up images of these when they think 'fake', they're less likely to call out good quality reps.

I'm looking for the following PAM models. Are they repped accurately? PAM 22, 56, 115 or 117. Any of these are sandwich dials? Or if anyone could point me to a lefty PAM rep that has the following features: 1) Polished case 2) seconds indicator (date acceptable) 3) Black hour and minute hands. 4) 40mm to 44mm 5) Sandwich dial I've ruled out the 217, 123, 219 and 26k already.

Mine's from WatchEden. As far as i know, they are the only ones with this version. And to answer a previous question about running seconds, the seconds indicator is at the 6 o'clock position instead of the window @ 9 o'clock.
