KW PAM346 - After three months, finally realized how amazing it is!!!
- Thread starter old_man
- Start date
it's based on a Shanghai movement which is manual wind and has date

This thread made me order one of these. Radiomirs are my preferred PAMs, and this looks mighty fine.
Ryans website states it's a faux plate-decorated rotor-less a7750 but somewhere else I read it was an unknown customized movement. I just don't want it to crap out some day with 0 spare parts availability

How much do you pay for fixing watches? This watch is USD 200. Doesn't it cost roughly the same amount to service/repair a watch?
Therefore does it matter if it breaks. You just buy another one.

Looks like an A7750 with the winding bridge and rotor removed to me. Look closely, they're identical. Which begs the question, what's the longevity of an A7750 being used solely as a hand-wound?

i wore the same 346 for 6 months, while waiting for my AP 44mm come back from Vac.. now it is in my watch box
I'm no movent expert, but all I can say is it does not feel like an a7750 at all.
The winding and date change are "crispier" and, tbh, feel like great quality and solidity.
I agree if it breaks it might be problematic to fix it, hopefully someone will identify this movement sooner or later.

I agree on the movement.. it seems very solid and precise when changing date an winding the movement.

Forgive the bad phone pic, but I just received mine that I bought in the sale, quite a few days earlier than expected and I couldn't be happier with it!
All I can say is WOW. What a watch.
Thank you Ryan for the excellent service, and ALE as always for the great advice!
Now excuse while I go and stare at my first PAM... :woo:
