what do you think about this PVD?

[bodhy786]

I know dadivsens PVDs are the best because I use to read this here....but what do you think about kigs?
They see a little different.....kings one is real PVD? in pics seem to be painted in pics no?
Price difference is huge....but mabe quality too?

It's nice but I think Davidsen is the only dealer that uses a true PVD(Physical Vapour Deposition) coating that I believe the gen uses. I have one like your King photo that I purchased from TTK and I also have a Davidsen 195 and I think the Davidsen looks more like the gen coating.....just my .02




Here they are side by side...the Davidsen is on the right

I haven't done any comparisons yet...and I'm no expert so...I probably wouldn't even know what to look for.... but here it is... you can let me know

You are right. The case back is right on and Davidsen is the only dealer so far to do true PVD coating. Everyone else is anodized stainless. There are better movements out there but no better cases. You can always source a better movement.
