·It's a regulator by an independent Hong Kong watchmaker - http://perpetual-watch.com. It's running a Sea-gull movement within, and mine is the R-05 model.
Love the details of the guilloche dial, and for the price of a typical servicing for a vintage Swiss, you really do get a lot of watch!
Here's a review of their 2 sub-dial R-01 model: http://www.watchitallabout.com/perpetual-r-01-regulator-watch-review/
Here's one more pic - let me know what other angles you would like to see, and I"ll try to take more photos tmw.
HOLY SMOKES....... Its Chinese!!! And they're proud of it too! Good for them.
I read an article about a year ago about the efforts of the Swiss watch industry to stop the flow of knock offs onto the world market, mostly out of China. The person quoted was high up in the official office charged with this task and he said the best Chinese knock off watches were hard to tell from the originals and could stand on their own as a world class top quality product if they'd just put their own name on it.
The problem is, nobody in the west wants to be seen with that name on their wrist yet...... I say yet because we used to make fun of those Leica look alike Nikon & Pentax cameras and Seiko & Citizen watches not all that many years ago.
And who would turn their nose up at a Nikon or a Grand Seiko today. Like it or not, its only a matter of time until they are a mainstream producer of quality products with their own brands respected in the market place.
Mind you, I'll still be wearing my 30T2.
