No Pictures?

Looks great, very retro. Nice

I would recommend Lucy at Truetime168 she can get anything you want and her communication is Number 1.

Did anyone buy a 8215 based watch if so how is that movement working out for you?

What kind of movement does it have Miyota 8215 or a 2836/2824 variant. If its the Miyota how is the sweep of the second hand, it beating at 21,000 vph which is fine but I hear the 8215 has some gear lash problems were the sweeping seconds hand can stutter and hang for a second due to different angle of watch to earths core ie gravity. Does it feel solid if you wind it?

Are you sure it doesn't have a 8215 in it, your link is dead but you might want to research the 8215 first.

Very Nice, Its so hard to keep up with what's available.

So far I think the KW watch looks kind of disappointing considering all the Hype. So far ZF is the winner and I don't have a dog in this race, Still waiting for the KW ZF showdown. To whom did you send it OP for service etc

NO, that's not how it works but in my short time I have found Lucy at Truetime168 to be super and Intime and Puretime are big and very trusted. Look at RWI if the links aren't here

Pretty Damn Cool

I'm in the same boat Noob is all gone so I ordered a BP from Lucy with a rebuilt swiss movement its about the best you can find now. Waiting for QC photos. Great price $260. Maybe if the Noob reappears and I see a big difference I can trade up, but right now looking forward to seeing it.

Anyone got any input on how to get a reliable Portuguese

I'm new, just like so many and after the BK Sub C I just ordered this is the watch I wanted but having a movement that fails is unacceptable. So now I see the KW Bronzo coming and at least have that to look forward to. I dont give a Hoot what movement they use auto, mech, quartz just make it work for Gods Sake how hard can it really be. Maybe demand is not high enough...OH WELL.

Hello all I'm 51 years old and have spent a lifetime involved with machines as a hobby from restoring old cars and Motorcycles to building computers for Gaming, yes at my age I play video games but only on computer right now its Battlefield 4. I can pretty much fix anything around the house. I have always been interested in watches but it was not till 97 that I bought my first Gen Omega Seamaster Pro Chronometer, you know the 007 kind I just had to have, I take care of my watches I also have a Tissot which commemorates Nicky Haydens worldchampionship in Moto GP in 2006. Last year I bought a Gen vintage as new 1990 Speedmaster with 863 movement. I just found out how serious this replica business is and immediately went out and bought a BK Sub C. It should be here this week I hope. Well I look forward to talking to you all and collecting , I think the KW PAM Bronzo is my next buy

That's Crazy cause I would of had a heart attack, But then again, who knows..Thanks for the insight
