Hello all,
I have been on the fence for quite some time now, looking for a white-dial-mechanical-chrono-watch.
So far I have come across PAM188 and PAM251. Both do look okay, even though I prefer the dial of the 188. I wonder why they removed the numbers...
I really have no clue what the difference between these two are though.
Like all the once below, are there any noticable differences?

Onlything I can see is that they came out at different times, and the the different dial.
I can't seem to find out what factory these are from either...
Like what is the biggest difference compared ot the new noob 111M and 187?
What concerns me is that the luminor chrono might wear big. Are there other watches out that is a bit 'smaller'?
There is also the concern about how much work do I need to put into it (modding).
In time I do want to possibly make a franken out of it, with first step beeing the movement.
But before any mods are done, how close is it to the original?
Like the date wheel and font, if it is too sunken or not (see the a7750 common issue) etc.
Does it also survive light rain? And can this be modded, if not?
The bezel on these models, are they prone to easily get scratched?
And the last question is if either noob or h, are planning to launch any white-dial-mechanical-chrono-watches in the near future?
