Raz13 5 Posted November 7, 2021 As per my other threads I have another couple I am trying to identify model / Factory before I potentially move them on. See below: First One Second One Again these came via Connie from Kingwatch. Any help identifying would be great. Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APjumbo 3,031 Posted November 7, 2021 Unfortunately I can’t help with figuring out the factory/version but a good place to start is to figure out which movement they have. a2813 or a2824 or a2836 Here are some tips I have learned. A quick way to tell is: when you rotate the crown through 360, how far does the minute hand move? If 90 mins, then you have a 21J or 2813; if 45-60 mins, you have a 2836/2824. Turn hands until the date flips Then backward to 8:00 Then forward If date flips its 2824 Doesn’t flip then its 2836 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k4jun 251 Posted November 7, 2021 Planet ocean is V5PO, if you have bought it 2-3 years ago - BP maker, if it is older than that very likely it is Noob maker. 300m is either BP or OM/JH. A side profile photo and a photo of (inside) clasp engravings may help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please see below photos from inside the clasp and side profiles of the 300m Does this help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bp has renewed production circa 4 years ago and then stopped it 1.5 year ago. 1 hour ago, Raz13 said: Please see below photos from inside the clasp and side profiles of the 300m That's Bp in my book. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
