I'm looking hard at the 063 right now. Of course there is Andrew's, Davidsen's and ELs that have my interest right now. I'm just wondering if any of them have decent "stock" lume....
I purchased Andrew's version and the lume is good. However it fades within 5 minutes to a light glow. The only thing I can see that really stands out are the hands (length). Crown guard looks very good. The cyclop mag looks a little weak, but I've never had the opportunity to compare to an original.....so that is an unfair comment.
The finish on the case is nice! I don't wear my metal band very often....because the leather/rubber straps are just "KICK ASS" on this watch. I oiled the SS band and that made a difference in how it feels on. However, the edges are a little ruff....and the straps feel much nicer.
The second hand sweep is very smooth with the ETA 2836. Overall, I'm VERY HAPPY with my purchase. The only problem is, I want another PAM.
I don't think most people would pickup on the small differences....but that's why I started this post in the first place to get everyone elses opinion.
