382 Bronzo Question

[ekw540]

Hi Guys. My first post here. Reading/learning much about this rep world...

Some questions:
Thinking of getting PAM382 KW=V6F version and Puretime has this:
PAM382 N Bronzo V6F 1:1 Best Edition on Brown Distressed Calfskin Strap P9000

According to the PAM guide, this is the best current option? Thank you ALE for doing this comprehensive test.
2) They also have a "Lite" version. Is that just a less accurate movement?

Will post QC pics in the thread when ready to go...Good stuff

The "Lite" movement is a ST 2555. Go for it.

I'm saying in the guide that the best option is KW with Seagull NON-inverted movement.
Puretime is calling Seagull versions as "Lite".
I really don't know why.

Watch looks amazing... Crown guard is off to me. the top and bottom edges are missing the cut out. Look at a Gen to compare with

Very strange. KW always had those nice CG from day one on this watch. This watch it looks like the cutouts on top and bottom are missing. Also after all this time you would think they would have corrected the bezel edge issue. Great watch but looks like it has taken a step backwards instead of forward at least with this piece.

I agree with Perry. Funny how latest ZF version has these CG chamfers on top and bottom that were missing in their previous versions

Wrote to Angus about this and no response. As a TD hopefully he will fix this problem. My first order with TD and not really getting the warm and fuzzy feeling here...
What is the thing to do here? I already PM him. Helpdesk? Fix it myself? :helpsmilie:

First Rep purchase? I would say go ahead and order it. Once you get it in your hands, you won't believe how happy you'll be with it. The minor tells on the Bronzo are irrelevant. The odds of you bumping into someone who has ever seen a gen Bronzo in person, are pretty darn remote!
