WHat is the differences between ETA and Asian movements of Pam111?

[linkielei]

I ´m looking for a Pam111. I saw on Puretime website there is 2 Versions:

swiss ETA : http://www.puretime.co/product/pam111-m-noob-best-edition-on-black-oem-rubber-strap-swiss-eta6497/

and the Asian movement
http://www.puretime.co/product/pam111-m-noob-best-edition-on-black-rubber-strap/

What is the differences between these two versions??? the movements looks the same....but the price is nearly 200USD higher.

Like you said yourself, one is swiss ( movement cost a lot more and much better ) and the other one is asian so the 200$ more is ok!

 

[linkielei]

you mean the structure or the material of the movements??? i dont see any differences, they looks the same.......i now it must be better because it cost much more but why better and how better??

The asian clone is just that - an asian copy of the original swiss eta. Most people will tell you that you are better off ordering the asian because you cant be certain that you are indeed getting a true swiss movement, some places are trying to pass off the asian clones as true etas.

If you really want a swiss, get the clone and then have a modder or yourself install a new movement.

Obviously the difference is the "Swiss" movement, quite more expensive.
But you never can be sure about the origin of these "Swiss" movements.
It is no worth to buy them.

Moreover I have seen the Swiss and have some poor quality details:
Look the Swan Neck please. It is horrible and dirty, non Swiss for sure!!!

Buy the Asian clone and be happy

one is made by the swiss elves wearing green overalls in a factory made out of chocolate.
the other one made by kidnapped chinese children guarded by old lady carrying wooden stick.
Hence the difference in price...

ALE knows a lot trust him
I also heard this asian handwind miovement is really good for that price! Take the asian, mine keeps really good time and lasts on full wind about 55 hours!

....With the ETA auto mvmts in comparison to asia clone is something else...
