PAM 233 Itch

[tsetse]

thk for the sharing on the PR info dudes...

got a question abt the 2nd hour hand (with arrow), according to the manual it reflects homebase, ie. SG, time for most bros here...

let's say i'm in buenos aires, (GMT -11hr), so the 1st hour hand will show local time, and the 2nd hour hand will show homebase (SG) time... does the date change with just the 1st hour hand or the 2nd hour hand?.. or can choose either one?..

Ok for the date, the main hour hand which is silver in colour will be homebase time and the date with change with this hand. The GMT hand will not change the date.

Thanks to fellow 233 owners for contributing their experience and knowledge on the PR of the 233. I also wind till I blurz and lose count liaoz. hahahaha take quite sometime to wind up the movement. But its pretty enjoyable man!

[tsetse]

I wind mine all the way to the end. You CANNOT OVERWIND the movement bcos there is a built in clutch that will start to slip when the barrels are fully wound.

Oh, cos I read online that only self winding movements have the built in clutch to prevent overwinding, manual winding ones does not have this clutch. So the 233's movement have this clutch also......swee swee liaoz hehehe

[Oceanklassik]

400 winds.. ?! Wah, imagine you wind until 145 and somebody interrupted you..

Actually PR on 233's designed for 10 days but more accurate on first 8 days, thus advertised as "8 days". As for winding, keeping winding till you hear a faint click sound which means the so-called clutch kicks in.

Yes, I heard the "Click" for the first time after some many months , thanks

[frank131]

some 233 stopped after 8 days and some 10 days. I stopped winding when it reached the last bar (400 turns = 7 3/4 bar) (1/4 for safety purposes )

I also like you stop at 7 3/4 bar
Now than I know there got built in clutch that will slip when is full tank.. thanks 7th Son.

Mine stopped after 8 days and 16 hrs later....btw how do U guys make sure its fully wound up? I stopped winding once the PR reserve reach the 8th bar.....or L series only lasts 8 days plus????

[Seventh Son]

Mine lasted also 10 days. How many turns?? I didnt count...

[chase de bull]

To be honest, Im not sure how many rounds also, I nv count haha, was too excited that day. I should be winding it up soon. This time round I will count how many rounds to fully wind up the 3 barrels. Im also testing to see how many days it can last with the 3 barrels fully wound up.

mine last 10 days with 400 turns.
