what's e power reserve like on ur 312L or e other newer 3xx models when left alone.?not in a winder, not on ur wrist.. either on e table or in a watchbox, left by itself..

when I 1st got my watch, it was 18hrs +/-..which is half of a regular 6497 mvmt.. a week later, today, its 7.5hrs +/-.. I knw smth is wrong with my mvmt but just wana knw what's e average like b4 taking any steps.. &whether an exchange is necessary.. watch hasn't been droppe, vigourously shakened or exposed to extreme elements neither has it been in contact with water..

thanks, all :)

328 here (same watch but on steel). _Roughly_ 40 hours here. Pretty good performance there but on a side note...

This is probably the poorest build quality of rep I've ever bought.

The steel is so soft it dents if a fly lands on it, and gets marks if i scratch my balls and accidently brush my pubes against it. That, and it's been falling apart piece by piece since i got it. Love the watch but they're kinda junky eh?

ROFL!!!

I hear ya though. As soon as I got my 359, the CG fell off and the strap release buttons started flying out. Needless to say, I sold it

Yeh, mine feels solid too, but there's no doubt the steel is much softer than other reps (will get some pics to show in the next couple days). And i've never had the peripheral bits and pieces break with such regularity.

Could have just gotten a dud i suppose, but with that and the softness of the steel, leaves me feeling like it's junkier than most.

My job is to check for angry squirrels in hollow tree trunks using my arm and despite several attacks, nothing has happened to my 312. One offered me 60 nuts thinking it a gen.

Being serious aside, your pubes must be like wire wool while mine are like Cape Cod; all of my ex-girlfriends are shiny, without swirl marks.
