KW 382 Bronzo- A Pic Perfect One

Recommended Posts

plankton

I'm into these Bronzo's guys! Sold my other last week,I had done all I could think of to it. In the mean time I ordered one from Soro actually, while waiting ordered some .07mm o-ring sets and a new type of silicone spray I had not tried.

 

The watch came in, I took it apart and changed out the o-rings to the next size up in hopes of some really good waterproofing. Used my new silicone to spay on the rubber and reassembled. Did my normal tuning (the regulation lever under all the plates that make it look like a Pam movement worked on this model so it was relatively easy to get it to COSC). Following that I gave it a 10 minute lemon / warm water bath and the results came out great.

 

By the way-took it to a jeweler here that can computer pressure test- passed a 7atm with the new .07's.

 

Fun fun stuff...........Many Pams are so fun because they come with such good AR and the KW's movement seem (IMO) to be much better or I've just had good luck with the ones I got.

If I was keeping mine shiny that would be the strap I'd choose as well, nice.

I'm telling you these are the hardest reps to get a correct bezel alignment and then the markers may not be set correctly. I ended going through a micro-TD that was willing to check all these things by hand for me. It's almost like last year trying to get a DSSD with the bezel set perfectly.
