I learned a long time ago... Don't sell you PAM straps as you'll need them again in the future.

Thanks for all these pix, Serg. The strap combos are great.

How is the strap changing? Are the screws PVD?

texex91 · 8 June 2014, 10:59 PM

Late congrats--looks great Serg!

masterserg · 8 June 2014, 11:15 PM

Thanks Cru!

The screws are not PVD. They have a satin finish but they are not black. They look like titanium (the case back is PVD titanium). The quick release system would be nice but too much of a risk on a ceramic case (I understand the QR system cannot be repaired if it jams). The threads are not machined on the ceramic. Instead, there is a cap like piece inserted on the female end of the lug holes. I have never handled a steel PAM other than the 233 so I do not know if this is the case with all the models that use screws.

Thanks for the details! Such a great watch.

Really looks nice

Congratulations

The only bit of criticism is that they should have blacked out the movement and used a clear sapphire instead of the smoked crystal (as they did with the Tuttonero). I like the movement well enough for a clear view.

looks amazing best of luck

Wow - awesome look on the rubber. How does it sit on the wrist compared to the 233?

masterserg · 11 June 2014, 01:06 AM

Thanks!

In fairness, I doubt I'll stay away too long ....
