New pam arrived - 392

Just got my 392 in the mail and it's awesome

Quick question though do all pam automatics make noise? I can hear and even feel the rotor moving, compared to my explorer where it's silent and can't feel anything.

Well here are a couple of pics

Nice. Congrats. Yes. Some make noise and vibrate. I like it. I had a Breitling that was spinning like crazy when I move my arm to fast.

Looking good, congrats!

As for the feedback, think of it as the watch communicating with you.

i have a 392 and I noticed the same noise when I got it. No problems and I never even notice it anymore. Great looking on you!

I really like that Pam, enjoy.

About the noise, my Aquanaut is noticeable (sound & movement) and I've learned to like it, let's me know it's there.

Congrats! I happened to be at my local AD today and tried the 392 on. Very nice, but just a bit too small for me. Then I tried on the 351. hubba hubba...almost left the store with that one. :)

392 isn't ETA - it's fully in-house.

312 = 44mm

392 = 42mm

Otherwise, identical.

I forgot to mention, but, another difference is the lug width. I think the 392 is 22 mm, but I'm not certain.
