Today I got my brand new PAM441 from the new factory, called: VSF
I have ordered this watch immediately after the release, but to be honest, not because of the watch, because of the new clone P.9001 movement.
I ordered this watch from our TD chazingtime.co, Ken and his team did a great job as always. Thanks for that!

The package was huge and I wonder why the bag is that big just for a watch. But there was a "litte" surprise inside next to the 441, a PIG
Nice and thanks VSF, that's a cool gift.
Ok but now let's start with the review.
I know ALE will make a complete review about the whole new 441, and I'm looking forward to that, so that's why I just focused these thread on the new clone movement.
We all know the "old" 7750 and st2555 movements, masked as a P.9000 with a deco plate.
Not to bad but in many ways wrong. There are often problems with the rotor because the wight sit very high to fit with the deco plate.
And we all know the balance is at the wrong place on this movements.
But now VSF comes out with their first watch and they use a brand new clone of the P.9001. No more deco plates and no more wobbly rotors.
Ok, here we go.
First step is removing the movement from the case.
The 441 is a so called front loader, that means you have to remove the crystal first before you can uncase the movement
The first surprise is the stem is the same as the 7750 stem. That makes hope because the 7750 keyless is very solid.
I remove the hands and we see the CP is the real one and not a cap.
Now we remove the case screws and than we can pull the movement including the dial out of the case
I have a old dial from a KW 438 here and KW cutting the dial feets to glue the dial on a ring inside the case. Not so VSF with the new clone. They use dial feets and this feets are fixed with the movement.
Ok, and here we are
My first impression after seeing this movement: wow it looks really cool and well manufactured
Let's start with the break down
Ok ok, they still using a deco [emoji6]
After removing this deco we can see and remove the automatic bridge.
The bridge is massiv and also very well made
And now we also can see the PR indicator. Well, it's not really a PR indicator, because the disk is not really connected to the movement, but the disc spins freely and so the PR indicator will always shows a different PR.
