PAM 546 VS PAM (411-417) Different Movements?

[zethunder]

Hello!

I was about to order a PAM546 from Ryan but then I realized that it was listed with a A6497 movement where PAM411, 416, 417... are all listed with a6497-v2. Arent these same exact watches with different casebacks?

Thanks in advance for your help!

It should be the same movement, Asian clones of the 6497.

6497-2 means it's a copy of the ETA/Unitas 6497-2 with beats at 21,600 vph. If it was a 6497-1 would be the low beat version, at 18,800 vph.

Anyway these have closed back, so you shouldn't worry too much about it.
