Pam 268 + Flyback problem

 

Hi,

Took my Flyback in to get checked today as it would appear that the self winding mechanism is not functioning. After winding the watch it would stop working after about 2 days even with constant wearing. It also has a noticeable rattle when wearing it, which I didn't know whether that was normal with a crystal back as my other Pam with a SS back is silent. Hopefully it is only a small problem and can be fixed quickly but disappointing considering it is only a month old.

When I returned it to the dealer I noticed a Radiomir 268 which I really liked the look and functionality of. I know some people like the Rad's to be simple but I like the date and 8 day indicator, as I want it to be very functional. I normally like automatic watches but thought if it was mechanical at least the 8 day indicator was useful and reserve should mean less winding.

I have reserved the 268 but would like any comments before I put any money down in a few days.

Cheers!

Warra
