For more The Zigmeister info on this topic.
I was right about the levers by the way but the hairspring isn't attachd to the lever with the gold pins..... it passes through it.
I seriously believe this is the other way around!! The hairspring is attached to the lever with the two gold pins so this is the lever for regulating the speed.....
I don't think grinding the insert will help... The insert can still be damaged. It's just a matter of hitting something with it in the right (or wrong) angle!
@Ubiquitous: Do you think genuine inserts will scratch less easilly?
I'm at a point that I hate all the watches with a bezel insert!
They scratch so easily that it's pissing me off!! Wear them once when going out to a bar and you'll know what I mean......
I have nothing against scratches but once a year or so I give all my watches a good polish. Scratches on SS or titanium can easily be removed but the ugly scratches on the insert can't and that bugs the crap out of me! Especially the scratches on my new black PO... you can't miss them.
Why aren't these inserts covered with a layer of sapphire or such??
Just wanted to share
Just cut the cloth into a small square piece and wrap some cotton thread around the base. Then cut off the excess material that is sticking out. Use a polishing wheel as base so if the cloth wears out you won't grind away half the watch .

You wil get the perfect reult!!!
We're talking about the non-chronoraph versions.......
For example Andrews PAM 104
PAM 104 USD 118,- (Asian 21-jewels automatic)
PAM 104 USD 298,- (Asian 7750)
Different angles but almost visually identical (except from some small dial differences)... not worth USD 200,- IMHO
