Help with PAM320 Timegrapher QC Pic Interpretation

[azmarzai]

Hi

I took the plunge on a PAM320, which looks sweet (see attached photos). I am not too bothered about it being perfect cosmetically in every way - it looks gorgeous enough to me. However I want the watch to perform to acceptable levels.

I have looked at various generic explanations of timegrapher data, and it seems to me the Amplitude and Beat Error values are within acceptable levels. However the Rate value is +12 sec/day (I am assuming "+012" is +12 and not +0.12?) and the Lift Angle is 53 degrees. I heard somewhere that if the lift angle is not correct the rest of the data may not be representative enough. Could someone please confirm:

1. Is 53 degrees an acceptable lift angle for an Asian 7750 auto 28800 movement? (I cannot find this info anywhere on the web.)
2. Is +12 sec/day an acceptable rate for these movements? (If it means I will lose 1 minute every 5 days, I would say that is perfectly OK... My friend's gen Rolex Submariner goes out by that much within a day!) Does+12 sec/day on the timegrapher translate into +12 sec/day on the hand, or will it be more/less?
3. Finally, could anyone confirm if the movement is Shanghai or Liaoning 28000 (I suspect Liaoning)? I hear Liaoning is not as good as Shanghai but is it "acceptable" enough?

Thanks in advance!

Hi azmarzai

Please don't get insane with your rep!!

12 sec/day is almost a certiified cronometer
The rest is OK for a rep. and for many gens

Please forget these data and enjoy your watch it is awesome !!

Hi ALE

Thanks for the response. To be welcomed by the person who wrote that amazing Panerai guide - awesome!

Your advice is very sensible. I think we can sometimes get lost in too much detail and that takes the fun out of things.

Muchas gracias
