dumb question

I really do not have any knowledge of pam's, but my question is this. Does Pam make their own movements or are they modified ETA. Also, what type of steel is used, is it the same as rolex?

They have both in-house and modified ETA depending on the model.

They also have a variety of case materials. Man, you have a lot of research to do.

You can always check out their website, it is pretty informative.
