My watchmaker took in one of my watches today and he said he's convinced the movement is a gen Swiss movement that they put in PAM's. I told him it's just a good rep, but I'm just gonna post it here to make sure.
He says the balance spring is Swiss and they don't use that in Chinese reps... what are your throughts?

i have no idea to tell but common sense tells me if its eta, the price would definitely be more than 168 for the movement alone.

I think the Y incabloc would be a give away and the colors of the jewels are not deep. But I'm not an expert either. I'm sure some will chime in soon.
