fischyyy Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Hey guys, I just recieved the QC pics for the two PAMs my parents get as a christmas gift. I'm not a PAM expert so I'd appreciate any input. First the 386m: And secondly the Pam 114 The 386 looks ok to me, and the thing bothering me is the +19s of the 114. Is this normal for an automatic Pam or should I ask Andrew to readjust the watch? And are there any other flaws? Appreciate the help, will post a review before I give them to my parents.

projectologist Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 As they are gifts for your parents, I wouldn't be concerned about your parents spotting any flaws.... unless they already own some gen PAMs or frequent this forum You could ask Andrew if he would give the regulator a little nudge in the minus direction.

fischyyy Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Thanks, that's what I wanted to do. They know they're not real, they are really liking this whole rep thing. It was more me being a rep perfectionist . I'm aware of the issues of the 386m rep, but in case my parents only seldomely wear the 114, it might end up with me some day . That's why I want to make sure there are no flaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fischyyy Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Thanks, I just copied the model nos from Andrew and didn't check them. Thanks . I'll compare them and get back to Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fischyyy Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Ok I asked Andrew to readjust the movement, he said the watch was at his watchsmith. How long does that usually take, I haven't heard from Andrew in two days? Usually he does everything within hours . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapman57 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 The 104i looks a nice example, but will certainly benefit from a movement regulation. It wasnt so long ago that this model was considered possibly the best out of box auto PAM rep and its still a great piece. Looks really great on a black croc deploy combo like the gen :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
