1088 replaces 88
OP keeps turning them out.
This time, though, the 1xxx update does not mean a move to in-house. Instead, the 1088 gets: * 8 more hours of power reserve (from 42 to 50) (nice!); * 4 more jewels (from 21 to 25) (nice!); * traditional screws (or spring bars? not sure) instead of quick change buttons (boo!); * grey minute markers instead of white (a detail that helps the classic PAM 5-minute markers stand out better) (nice!); * the Asso strap instead of alligator (personal preference, but definitely a cost saving move... I prefer the gator); * tang instead of déployant (ok for Asso, but a cost move; personally prefer OEM gator with OEM deployant over OEM Asso with OEM tang). Inverted cyclops and regular lume remain (nice!). No word yet if the case is thinner or if the price changes. (Pic source.) |
