  1. sssurfer,

    Where did you get the case for the Pam 90 (without the recessed pusher for date)?

    I'm going to ask the dealer if he has one.

    This is the 21J so I'm unsure which case will fit, or if they are all the same size.

    Thanks

    True fanatic of PR PAM here (027x2, 028, 090, 125).

    The 027 and 028 with 2892-A2 movement are those that you can bring as close to the gen as possible (datewheel and cyclops swap required).

    The 090 and 125 are more than decent if you replace the case (naturally giving up with the quick date change function).

    The best bang for the price is a Silix' 027 at 80 USD.

  2. Thanks for the reply gavidoc.

    I ran another test with more manual winding and the reserve lasted about 46 hours.

    I then wore the watch for 2 full days and the reserve lasted 42 hours.

    I assume this means that I sometimes am not moving enough during a regular day to generate a substantial amount of power reserve.

  3. I have been having problems with the power reserve on a fairly new ( < 1 month) Pam 104 Asian 7750.

    I did The Zigmeister's test and wound it for about 150 slow light semi-turns, which I estimate to be about 25-30 full turns on the crown. I let it sit overnight and the reserve lasted about 24 hours.

    I then kept the watch in my pants pocket while at work. I also wore it on my wrist for about 6 hours until I went to bed. I work at a desk, but I try to move here and there. After letting it sit overnight, the reserve only lasted for 13 1/2 hours. Do you think maybe it is an auto winding problem or maybe I just need to move more and longer? I thought even if the watch is in my pocket, I do walk around here and there and commute for an hour.

    Also, does the reserve ever improve over time, since it's still a fairly new watch?

    Any suggestions on what I should do? Should i contact the dealer or is this a non-issue?

    Thanks
