Tim 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M5Man Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Personally I tend to like and stick with the swiss movements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miquel Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssparky Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekhunter Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 It ultimately comes down to economics. If you can afford the Swiss movement, then buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
