are dividsens pams the best?

[jdimarco]

hey everyone,

i am in contact with davidsen for a pam base in steel with an asian movement. his price is A TON more than other sellers. Do his pams offer something more than others?

let me know thanks

Personally I dont think they are. I am no Pam expert, but there is serious build quality issues with some of them. If you buy a base Pam and have it modded you would get the best possible Pam for your money.

At one point I would have said that Yes, his offerings are among the best. His dials, hands, lume and overall quality were heads and shoulders above other stock offerings... Its worth it to get the tall canon pin that he offers standard on all his hand-wound pams...

but lately I've heard of serious QC issues with his items... do a search on his name and i'm sure you can find several threads showing various issues that folks have had as of late.

That all being said... I may be in the market for a new 112 soon... the only thing my current 112 has going for it is the actual Swiss E movement (soon to be in my 127)... I'll be looking to DSN for my new 112 when ever I get around to it, because overall I have yet to hear about him leaving anyone hanging when they receive a watch from him that lacks QC.

I just picked up one of his 183H pams... It is very well done. He was straight forward with me from the begining to final purchase on all questions I had for him. He provided a tracking number and shipping was pretty quick to the US. The lume on the 183 I received is super bright, and glows for a long time. I will order from him again for my next Pam.
