Guest Obeyan Posted November 14, 2006 Report Posted November 14, 2006 Is the rep of the Pam 90 based upon the Valjoux 7750 as the original, or is it based upon another movement?
sam_tgg Posted November 14, 2006 Report Posted November 14, 2006 Is the rep of the Pam 90 based upon the Valjoux 7750 as the original, or is it based upon another movement? I really do not think the gen is based in a Valjoux 7750, beacuse that is a chrono movement. In the web it said nothing about the 7750, and in the catalog, it is a Panerai Caliber OP IX. In the rep is a chinese with seconds at 9. Some reps use a 7750 to have a "sweep" sconds at 9. I have the 090 and it is a beautiful rep, but the one I have (from Andrew) come with an open back, and the gen is close. I prefer it open

There isn't a date- so I don't know when the article was written. http://www.paneristi.com/archives/pam90/index.html
Chronus Posted November 14, 2006 Report Posted November 14, 2006 ETA 7750 is a chrono movement with seconds at 9 o'clock. This is the movement used in the genuine Arktos PAM092 I believe. The chrono parts of the movement are stripped out so (even in the rep Asian7750) it should be more reliable with no complications.
JWR Posted November 15, 2006 Report Posted November 15, 2006 the 090 and 222 are a seagull power reserve movement. very good.

I prefer it open Hallo Herr Kollege yes i have also PAM 090 with open caseback... but the version with solid caseback is much better... solid, heavy and with saphir glass... the version with open caseback is with mineral glass and cost around $80 (silix) and the version with solid caseback cost around $160 (trusty, josh)... i know why the solid version is more expensive... it is much better... i have saw the solid version by a friend.

Watchmeister Posted November 15, 2006 Report Posted November 15, 2006 The 90 rep has the seagull movement. The gen uses 7750-P1. In fact, vritually all Gen PAM automatics use a form of 7750 (Marina automatics, GMT, Power Reserve, Submersibles,etc.). Not a lot of originality there. Okay, 7753 for the chronos with date between 4 and 5.
