Pam 609

Does the paperwork indicate this run was limited to just 1500 pieces?
Curious is that considered low production and is there a better chance for the watch to hold its future resale value? Appreciate any info the experts can share.

Pam 609

Yes and no.

1) Yes, your watch, which is a “R” series is the 974th in the production line of 1,500 pieces.

2) No. Sorry to say this but this model PAM00609 or what I have (PAM00610) are all regular production watches. They will churn them them out every year.

3) No. Getting a watch in hopes of getting a profit is not the way to go. You might as well buy a few grans of gold with the money spent on this watch as investment.

4) Lastly, you should keep the serial and millesimation number (R0974/1500) confidential to prevent others from using your numbers to scam others or produce Fakerai.

Thank you. Was not looking at this as an investment just curious as to what the production numbers really meant.

Will edit out the numbers per you advice once the option is enabled.

Oh! I forgot to add that the series “R” means 2015. The year of manufacturing the watch.

Q: 2014
R: 2015
S: 2016
T: 2017

And so on and so forth.

The alphabet “R” is the production year of the watch, which has already been shared by waikeekee. And they produced 1,500 units of PAM 609 during that year. Yours being the 974th.
