Pam 111 and 112 are nice but someome said they are just base model

[Milgauss74]

Just when some people and even myself are pretty fond of the simple design of 111 and 112, I remembered someone once gave me such a degoratory remark that such base models of Pam are nothing and worthless

Watches are subjective to individual's preference, follow your heart, u wun go wrong. Follow other's rude comments, u tends to regret later. Having said that, I do have PAM 111 as my base model and first PAM. To this date, I still luv the sandwich dial, see thru case and everything in it. Not to mention, I have been changing straps to different colours to match my outfit. :P

The main issue with 312 is its thickness not the case size. 392 houses the same movement but in a case 2mm smaller than the 312. Hence I imagine the thickness of 392 is even more obvious both look and feel wise so do take note.

On the other hand, some say 372 though 47mm doesn't wear very big and wear better than 312 due to it's thinner, so don't like base on case size.

I really love 372 for its clean design, sandwich dial and the dirty brown look but size wise, it's way too huge on my tiny wrist. Need to try out 392 one of these days...

I like sandwich dial Glad to hear from many of u who think otherwise from the comment I received on Pam 111. That person whom I know self proclaimed to be one who collects vintage PAMs. To me, if u really love watches, whether it is entry level model or not, it really doesn't matter. What's important is that you appreciate their designs and workmanship.

Do u guys even know what is a pam base? 111 is not a base!

[david.tan]

yes, 111 and 112 not consider base pam, they just use ETA movement

i'd go for 111, with second hand you can measure how accurate is your watch, without it you wont even know if your watch is running or not sometimes

nope, 112 is a base pam.

base pams are models without second hand and complications such as date.

How come the dial of 111 has Luminor Marina and 112 has Luminor?

Please pardon me for my ignorance.

Luminor models with sub seconds dial will have the words Marina. Those without, don't have.

Thank you, cheers!

have to agree with this and your prior comment. Can never understand why the 111 is always referred to as base pam when it has a seconds hand.

Hi new owner of a pre own Pam 112 here. Had been looking for a Pam for daily and finally set on 112. No regrets as dial is clean with sandwich (my fav must have) and the see thru case back. It's fun having this watch, straps and straps! Now my GMT2 might need to rest more lol. I think both 111 and 112 are good starter. Not forgetting other popular base models like 000, 005.... List goes
