tslims99 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I recieved a Pam 390 from Josh about 2 weeks ago, and have been very satisfied with it thus far. I decided to do an engine check to see what kind of reserve the hand wind movement possesses. Gen panerai watches have a reserve of 50 hours, and I was interested to see if my rep could stay wound for even close to 50 hours. Well...I am very happy to report that I gave my Pam 390 a full wind 48 hours ago, and it is still keeping perfect time! Way to go Josh! I will not hesitate to pull the trigger on a another Pam in the future!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfovco Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Very cool. I had my 390 serviced when I got it. I got 54 hours on a full wind. And it keeps time super well, even after a week it's still spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

René Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 mine runs 58 hours without any service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamyohan Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 How much it cost for Zig to service it? and what should I say to Zig regarding the service? My PAM 111N movement is a little bit noisy, I assume servicing it will make it less noisy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tode1640 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) I have recently invested in an A21j PAM090 - one of the ones with a functional power reserve dial that goes to 40 hours. The person I bought it from (back street rep vendor in Malaysia) warned me that I wouldn't actually get anything like 40 hours. She said that it should do 24, and might make it to 30. I tested it by giving it a full manual wind and left it to run down. I got *exactly* 40 hours from it, with the PR indicator nicely and accurately counting down the hours. A21Js come in for a lot of flack, and I know that they can be a bit hit or miss. However, just sometimes, they can perform outstandingly. Not only does it have the same PR as a gen, it is also by far the most accurate rep I own - usually keeping time to less than 5 seconds per day.
