Hi, i know many of us here are not a fan of RG watches, especially on reps, but have anyone purchased the pam393 before? Or anyone willing to chime in on the accuracy? I'm quite fascinated by the aesthetics of it.

 

Thanks

I think it's pretty sexy... I have been waiting for a better 392 (same as this 393 but the SS version) for a long time. Finally the P9000 movement came out, waiting patiently!

Personally I like the 393; a 42mm case is a welcome size addition to a line historically devoted to many larger cases. The new 393 is a very good looking rep especially with the brown strap, very gen-like.

 

Storm tooper4 you should revisit PT and TT, both are offering a newer version in the correct size with an updated movement... although I'm not too sure about the dial color. 

 

Angus has done himself a disservice IMO by labeling the watch as a "Ladies" model... unisex maybe, but many if not most 393 buyers are males and putting potential buyers off with the gender attachment is a mistake. The gen is listed as a Mens watch.

 

Now to see if they release the updated 392....

A few quickPix of my 393 from KW, I could not live with the tan calf strap so a nice leather was sourced from eBay seller "threadhunters" it feels good and looks good to me, you decide:

Currently I have no basis for comparison, this is my first and only PAM, however I do have a 351 on the way and I can provide some side-by-side once it arrives. It is easy to wear and still a substantial timepiece measuring 51mm lug to lug, ~50mm incl. the CG.

 

General FYI my watch shown above is the older version not the updated 393 which was just released; noticeable improvements with the updated version include the movement, date font, thumbnail buckle and screw in strap lugs rather than quick release. The cost has more than doubled, but now with this watch in my hand the differences are noticeable. My 393 is a very nice affordable watch but certainly not a super-rep, I will leave it to others to define the newest version.
