Swiss vs Asian movement.

[prelude]

Can any Pam expert post picture of balance wheel and shock system comparison of swiss vs. asian. If there was a one previous one if you guys can direct me to thread I will be very appreciated. Thanks.

there are different types on the Asian and on the swiss

I am not a PAM collector but on the common ETA movements, it's easy to tell a clone from a genuine ETA movement @ the shock mount. ETA cuts 3 release grooves into the shock mount and the Chinese were lazy and only cut 1 shock spring release groove into the balance staff area

First are you talking 6497 or 7750, if you mean 6497 all the gen PAM ones have Incabloc shock assemblies, while ETA may have Incabloc or Novodiac, Asian none of the previously mentioned ones.
