Hi there,
Today my KW PAM389 arrived, it is the version with the Seagull movement from the Kuvarsit watch. The watch looks and feels really good, especially the rubber strap that comes with te watch, this feels almost like a gen Panerai strap. The thing I don't like is that the watch has a lot of dust between the dail and the crystal, I expected that they could at least prevent that much dust from entering when putting the pieces together when you pay that amount of money for a rep watch.
I also noticed that the secondhand does not go as smooth compared to my PAM111 (noob v3), it seems that de steps that the secondhand makes are not the same throughout the minute. Does anyone know if this is common for the Seagull movement?

Does it make you regret your C&R ?
it actually does make me regret sometime especially you guys photos are killing me . But i do really hope they update their case profile
Our well know A7750 beats at 28800 bph , that 8 beats per second.
The Seagull movement installed on 389 rep beats at 21600bph, that's 6 beats per second.
In such a short hand/needle (seconds@9) those 2 beats per second difference you should not be a factor. It's almost unnoticeable for the human eye.
On the other hand the Seagull movement is much more reliable and durable.
I think the "pros", this time, are much more important thatn "cons".
Been out of the loop a awhile. Just curious.. Anyone order directly from kw? I didn't see they were listed as a trusted dealer
Right. But KW also has their own website http://www.kuvarsit-watch.com. Curious to hear feedback of their sales
