davewe Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hi, Josh has this killer looking vintage PAM. Anyone have this yet? Opinions? Thanks, Brad PAM 3634 I have one (though i didn't get it from Josh) and love it. As you'll see from his website, there are three versions. Several of the dealers sell them. The biggest complaint is the strap. Even if you like Pilot style straps (and i do) it's not a very nice one. At the time i bought mine, i could not find a 26 mm pilot style strap. i contacted several strap makers to have one custom made, but finally got radical, pulled up the lugs, installed a Mario Paci, and epoxied the lugs back down. However, lately I have seen a couple of makers with a 26 mm pilot strap. Bottom line is, I love the watch, the Russian movement works well and one of these days i'm gonna get the california dial version too. You can see pictures of my original strap and how I installed the MP here: http://web.mac.com/davewe/iWeb/Site/3646.html Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridnwind Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Thanks Dave, Your watch is sweet! I would replace my strap too. The 3634 I'm looking at is a 45 mm and I believe yours is a 47 mm. Regards, Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridnwind Posted May 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Rep from Joshua. 45 mm. It looks like a nice 3646 Hommage to me and it's 45 mm, which is a comfortable size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
