b16a2 Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Ok, I am currently on the search for the next few reps that i want to buy. I have one Pam, a 005, and wouldn't mind something a bit 'different' I have looked through various pictures of gen's and have decided the 225 is the one I would like to go for. I cannot for the life of me see any flaws, apart from picky things like the pearl isn't as good as the gen, the end of the chrono pusher looks shorter on the gen, and the raised metals bits on the bezel stick out more slightly on the rep, but these could be due to the angle of the pictures? Can anyone shed some light on the flaws of this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 it should be titanium instead of SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltatahoe Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 it should be titanium instead of SS. well i would say that is a pretty significant flaw @b16a2, if you're looking for a good, accurate pam sub, it might be worth waiting for the pam 252 north pole angus has been working on for a while (although it has been radio silence since late march)...

b16a2 Posted May 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Ok thanks for the input. The North Pole looks good, I'l wait for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shultz Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Just posted over on the darkside. I recently purchased a white 225 but don't like the white dial. I purchased a new 202 dial plus hand set and will swap both. Actually the gen case is made from Ti and the rep pearl is a weak point, too. Nevertheless that watch is truly a quarterpounder. YOu also can see a black BOB carbon cstrap with PAM-blue stitches. This one went out of priduction a long time ago. It measures 26/26mm and will fit the mutated watch (with black dial) perfectly. Enjoy the few quick shots: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usil Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Interesting. Where did you get the new dial? And how are the dials attached? How do you remove them on PAM's? Usil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 i like the wht face more...all of may pam's except one are black face...so this one would bring some changes...and love the round hour markers just like on the 222 (that's on of my fav's)...

shultz Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Interesting. Where did you get the new dial? And how are the dials attached? How do you remove them on PAM's? Usil Usil - I purchased a from a private member here not a dealer. The dial is attached as usual: It has got feet fitting the asian mvt. No glue. Will be an easy swap as the old one can be removed without problems. I will not do that work by myself but will ask The Zigmeister for a re-lume job on this watch. Will lokk very nice re-lumed with C3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Will lokk very nice re-lumed with C3. It is supposed to be tritium though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted May 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Any chance of a wrist shot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shultz Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Any chance of a wrist shot? Sure @ V Yes, you are right. Probably I'll ask Rob for tritium lume close to the colour of my recently modded 1680. But I like the C3 better because it really glows like hell.
