Help Pam183H - Davidsan or Josh?

[whopfish]

hi all, i've done all the searches and narrowed down to either davidsan or josh 183H, both at 3 bills
must add that Davidsan has also been very helpful w/ queries

can someone advise me on which is a better rep?

as far as I know/researched

davidsan pros - better lume, more accurate dial, cn mvmt swan neck but no regulator, better crown
cons - second hand appears too big

josh pros - swiss mvmt w/ swan reg
cons - weak lume

am i right?
what to get?

Based on the information you have gathered, you are in the unique position of having to decide for yourself what it is you want to do. Either way, you cannot go wrong.

I bought 183h from davidsen. I didnt get the watch yet but i told him about that too large second hand and he said he will put smaller one on my watch.

Josh's will also have the recessed cannon pin problem.

Davidsen isn't offering these with the Swiss movements anymore? Are you certain of that?

And, actually, I would say that apart from the lume, Joshua's dial is more accurate.
