48 Hours !!

No, guys, I'm not referring to the Nick Nolte film....but the Power Reserve results I got from my Subby.....EXACTLY 48 HOURS!!!

Remember, I had switched watches a couple of days ago? Well, I gave Subby about 40 turns of the crown and then put it aside. Stopped after 48 hours on the button!! Quite impressed with that!!

That just goes to show what all that tossing does for your watch

Hey tosser,

Which part of "then put it aside" did you not understand?

You've had that watch for how long now We're quite sure it has undergone and extraordinary amount of tossing

As you guys know, I carry out this PR test with any new watch I acquire...just love to do it!

Funnily though, the YM (with the SAME 3135 movement) was able to dish out just under 47 hours. How come then the Subby doled out the extra PR time?

Now, now....only serious replies....no wiseass remarks, tossers!

It's just like tossing, JJ. The YM has been in the vault for a while, so it didn't take as long for it to wind out

(sorry, I didn't have a serious answer)

So you were using your Sub as a curling rock and after 48 hours you finally made a perfect shot with it.

All that proves is that the Italian fake is better than the Chinese copy.
