Anybody have a 009? Or a 249?

I have been anti-Pam for quite some time now since I keep seeing goofballs here in Los Angeles and Tokyo wearing what looks like reps for the most part.

Everybody and their mother seems to have a PAM. They are seemingly as ubiquitous as the Rolex Subunderwaremariner these days.

For the record, I own a 183 and a lovely Luminor. Both have been fully modded. I've had both for a looong time now. I wear the 183 for formal occasions coupled with a Europelli Black Cordovan with Titanium stitch. The Marina I wear often, but not during these past winter months. It is more of a warm weather (short sleeves) watch for me.

I've been thinking about goin' for another PAM instead of some Pateks or IWC models. Too bad there isn't a Breguet Type XX Areonavale that's worth raving about (I should sell all of my reps and buy the real thing). Anyhow, I'm thinking about going for a PAM 009 PVD model. Something different. Do any of you folks have one of these Davidsen PVD 009 watches? Care to comment?

I am also intrigued with the 249, but it seems that Davidsen's hands are not shaped correctly. The 249 might be too big for me though. My 183 is pushing it, but I figured that 2mm more overall is a difference that is probably not noticeable.

I am leaning towards the 009 in a big way. I want a base model with a historical twist.

Best regards from Euno

PS. For those that don't know me, I am an ultra-perfectionist. "Close" won't do.

PSS. Here are my 2 PAMs thus far. Both were bought a looong time ago.
