mellons 885 Posted May 4, 2023 Just arrived in- few wristies of River’s new offering. Feels very good on, flat solid steel caseback, sapphire crystal, well finished. Good bezel action and the cali dial is very attractive, glossy with a texture and plenty of lume on raised indices. Blue hands pop. Acc to ebay manual wind asian 6497 movement no secs, if its as good as his asian auto movements its as accurate as eta. No teardown yet, solid meaty lug bars well threaded. Amazing value imo… Case only 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted May 4, 2023 Is that real bronze? I've had a pilot build sitting for ages....may be worth checking out rivers stash for ideas... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tech 211 Posted May 4, 2023 Nice one! I forgot River was still plying his trade. Fcuk i'm old. Can I assume this one is 47mm with 26mm lugs? I have had two PAM382s and had to let them go as they are a tad too large for me. I wish they could do some in 44mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quality and finish excellent and shape is very very accurate. His cali dial and hands are excellent, tad oversized in case but look very well. Caseback thickness spot on.
