Looking For Portuguese

[mammoli 0]

Hi,

I am looking for a good rep of a Portuguese in black with register at 12 and 6. Do anyone know who could have it? Have you ever bought one?

There are a few options.

 

1) Quartz. Visually less accurate, but reliable.

 

2) Automatic standard rep. This one has serious problems with the movement and my strong recommendation is to avoid this option. And

 

3) Franken. Very expensive option, but visually good and reliable.

 

All in all I would take a close look around for another watch before you decide on this particular one.

Could you be more precise on 2) ?

 

I've just bought one of those - however not worn it for a longern time yet... What are usual flaws?

it is the "seconds" hand location. It really is not made for the 12 or 6 o'clock position. Most eventual end up failing.
