Hi,in your experience is the P3000 superclone 1-2-3-4 reliable as classic 6497 ? I don't understand how much is power reserve of superclone.
In essence, it is better Aian unitas 6497 or P 3000 superclone?

The A6497 is a veritable workhorse for the earlier contemporary and historic manual wind PAMs. The P.3000 replaces the A6497 for the more modern versions. The P.3000 is a completely new design from the factories, with a power reserve that exceeds the gen. The only problem with it is it's very difficult to repair, as mentioned by @chris3007 in this thread,

Reliability wise they might be comparable, repair wise, the A6497 is easier to repair. IMHO, each movement is suited for what reps they were designed for. Can't compare one to the other as you can't use an A6497 for a watch using the P.3000 and vice versa.
