The P.9000 series is definitely made in house

the OP XI movement is based off an ETA 6497/2

can i say that ALL Panerai's calibre with name "OP" are just modified while ALL the "P" are in house?

Guys, I'm looking for a skeleton automatic watch as a gift to my gf, with a budget around 400-700. Any brand or model in particular would you recommend?

Found this: http://www.amazon.com/Kenneth-Cole-Automat...=pd_sbs_watch_2

but its not really available in M'sia, is it? Also considered some of the different movements from smaller brands like those from China that is coming up, but even that is not easy to get..

ingersoll price is around 800~2000 come with nice design...
at this price u would expect a mineral glass and a chinese movement..
imo .. i dun like the "design in germany" as german watches are not known with such design...and its no longer a america brand since it has been acquired by the chinese

which specific series u looking for??
for the bauhaus series, they claims that they are bauhaus but imo the dial is just too much, not clean enough
for the automatic they are using 2824, the one with power reserve is using citizen miyota

they have been using swiss, japanese, russian movement in other collection

my bad sweat.gif it's Offshore Limited
imo it's another big oversize fashion watch with quartz movement,
good thing about it is that it does have a uni "trademark" design on their watch case on each of collection
one more thing is that the left sided crown is also a functional design tongue.gif
