4th Generation P.O. 2824 vs 2836

[Jimster]

I just picked up a 4th Gen P. O. from King. It was listed as powered by a 2824. I just popped it open and found a 2836.

What's the general feeling on the two movements? Is one better than the other?

I've got the 2836 in my 300M GMT from King and also a 2824 in other watches and both are performing well.

The other interesting thing is that the clasp has the 45mm 4 lines on wording. I've seen it both ways on the 42mm.

Here's a 42mm on the bay with the 4 line clasp:

The seller has 98% feedback. I'm thinking the photo may be wrong. The Omega site doesn't show the clasp but I've always seen the 42mm without 4 lines.

I think they are equally good Jim, one I believe is date(2824) and the other daydate(2836)

The day is unused on the PO obviously.

Interesting info on the clasp, didn't know that.
