flavor flav Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 all i can say is WOW! these are absolutely superb! the finish is the best ive seen on any pam rep to date and the lack of flaws is scary! i got mine from joshua. they arrived somehow three days after i ordered them! the strap on one had stitching damaged on the end. i e-mailed josh and he responded in seconds and offered to ship me a new strap. he also shipped me some dials for some projects i was working on along with my order. i will say i like the rubber strap best as it fills the lugs better and looks better on the wrist. these are "must haves" for any pam freak! i highly reccomend joshua for these. he continues to offer the best service i've gotten from any dealer. the crown action feels genuine!! the watches will amaze you. i though joshua sent me gens
stoowie Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Just beautiful May I ask what the number of the watch is and the price please

babola Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) ...i though joshua sent me gens Guess you won't be buying a Pam-Fer gen then... Unfortunately, 'real Pam geeks' don't buy much into Pam Ferraris , although a very nice and well made reps. cheers, babola Edited April 10, 2007 by babola
doopey Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 You know what's bugging me, this is the first edition and almost a perfect replica, but somehow they can't make a perfect 111.
Dario33 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Love the rubber strap/chrono combo. Both pieces look awesome!
richard_uk Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Hows the rubber, is it like gen rubber or a bit of a dust magnet?
b16a2 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Look very good! How do they feel compared to your gen 111h?
shultz Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 These new Ferrari reps are really nice. I saw them today at an AD's store and compared to the gen I must say: Save some money and buy a rep for a 99% feeling. There is just one reason that keeps me off from a purchase: I don't like these italian F. cars! I am crossing my fingers that they will make that watch with another car brand.... Or better a motocycle like my 20 years old BMW
stevie7s Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 You know what's bugging me, this is the first edition and almost a perfect replica, but somehow they can't make a perfect 111. Doopey brings up a valid point. If they make the Ferrari at a quality like this, Im sure they have the ability to make a Pam 111 or anything else for that matter, just as great. Im not a huge fan of the Ferrari watch in general but you have to applaude them for the attention to detail. Joshua, anything else coming out of this factory that we can get excited about?

Unfortunatelly we've seen this before...111H reps are selling like hotcakes anyway...no need for rep makers to 'fix' any of those evident flaws...and most of us know - there are many flaws on current 111H, just ask Flav I believe the current sandwich dial 111 version is it's last...they may come up with thicker CG at some stage, but I doubt it, that will just unnecessarily increase already tight production cost. Our only 'hope' is some other rep factory comes with MKII version, similar to current 44mm Ti PAM offering where 036 still comes in diferent case/crown/CG config from other 'standard' ones like 118 or 177. In general, the PAM reps are getting better every day, the new and updated models like 092, 239, 243, Ferrari etc are all much better made, and with greater attention to details compared to their older counterparts...unfortunatelly all powered by Asian mov'ts and none of them really appeals to me, so I'm still waiting for that perfect PAM_historic. Who knows, one day maybe...:-) cheers, babola
Watchmeister Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 That is because they start from scratch. We will see a perfect 111, if and only if, someone feels there is enough interest to do a whole new one.
HauteHippie Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Flav do you mean to tell me that you ordered 2 Ferraris from Joshua and all you received was a pair of watches?!?! You had better post this in the misrepresentation forum post haste!!! Seriously though, they look great. I'm curious, is there any detectable AR on those puppies?

Rob1 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 no AR at all.. I'm pretty certain that my Ferrari chrono has light AR on it. I get a faint blue halo on the reflection from light bulbs if I hold the watch at the correct angle. It's only a single halo (double halo on my Steelfish) so I assume light single-coated AR.
Pix Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Flavor Fav, would you mind posting a wristshot ? I think we haven't seen one yet, and that would help imagining the size of the thing. Thx !
subzero1 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 The Ferrari watches don't photo well, they always look a bit tonka-toy-ish. In real life they are much more understated and elegant than what shows on the photos.
tonton2000 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 It definately has a light AR coating for sure. Im holding mine's in my hand now looking at it
elprimerozen Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Realy nice watches man!!!And Josh as always make things so so easy!!
robc_uk Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Thes look great, but I think I'll hold off until someone reviews th GMT version. Rob
Everythingape Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Beautiful watches, FlavorFlav! I see the yellow really makes the dial stand out a lot more than the one with the silver Ferrari emblem. I'm thinking about buying a couple of these myself. Does anybody have an opinion on upgrading the cheaper 21j FE10001, and buying the non-chrono 7750 version (The FE10003 on Josh's site)? ..is the 7750 a more reliable movement without the chronos?
mezzanine Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 I've been wondering about that as well- the whole issue of the 7750 with frozen(?) subdial reliability vs. the standard 7750 reliability. I like the 008 the best, style-wise, but would go for the 002 if it was a more reliable movement. Also, I would rather these have no AR at all, then just light crappy AR. That way you can get it done right yourself, at least.
