Asian Po Or Swiss Po

[djtimodj]

Also looking into getting a PO. just a quick question, is the case the same on the more expensize swiss version as the asian ?? so is it just the cost of the better movmentg you pay for??

what are you guys thoughts?

would you spend the money on a swiss 4th gen from andy or just go for a 45 mm asian for less than half the price?

any one got a 45mm asian ? whats the quality like ??

thanksand sorry for all the question.

With respect to the 42mm PO, the cases are indeed different. The side of the case that is cut out to form the crown guards is different. The crown depth is far better on the ETA version and the brushed sides at the lugs are fatter on the Asian case.

Personally I tend to like and stick with the swiss movements.

I got the Asian 45mm and like it. The only thing I don't like is that the bracelet isn't the curved one and the clasp engraving is etched. It also doesn't have the "planet ocean" on the clasp. Pluses include the cool looking caseback and the nice dial.

Also, what size is your wrist? Is it small or large?

Ultimately, it's your decision...make yourself happy.

I have written EL about one I have been happy buying swiss and EL has some watches with Super luminova. You can read by my 1950 when it is glowing!

It ultimately comes down to economics. If you can afford the Swiss movement, then buy it.
