The movement inside This reference is built with either calibre. The choice changes the price, the rate and the reserve — nothing else about the watch.
| Base | Seiko NH35 or Miyota 8215, automatic | Swiss clone of the maison's own calibre |
|---|---|---|
| Rate | ±15 to 25 seconds a day | ±5 to 10 seconds a day |
| Reserve | About 40 hours | 55 to 70 hours |
| Balance | 21,600 A/h · six beats a second | 28,800 A/h · eight beats a second |
| Servicing | Any watchmaker can service it; parts are everywhere | Serviced by a specialist; finished as the original is |
| Suited to | Wearing daily, keeping simply, spending less | Matching the reference exactly, and glass casebacks |
The Swiss movement is $50 more. That figure buys the rate, the reserve and a movement that reads correctly through a glass back — not a different watch.
Which we would take. If it is to be worn every day and serviced down the road from you, the Japanese is the honest answer. If it has to survive a loupe against the reference — or the caseback is glass and the movement is meant to be seen — take the Swiss.
The exact base calibre for this reference is confirmed in writing, with the QC film, before anything is dispatched. The two movements, explained

Description
The PPF's glorious legend, as precious as time itself – the Vacheron Constantin 85180 collection watch.
With a case diameter of 40mm, the Patrimony case inherits the flowing curves and aesthetic essence of the collection case. It is a paragon of minimalist style. It embodies a unique minimalist philosophy, achieving a balance between the rigorous straight lines and curves in its structure. The slim and elegant case is inspired by the styles created by Vacheron Constantin in the 1950s, showcasing his unique personality.
The hour markers and hands are inspired by 1950s design, complementing the dial's delicate lines. The curved hour and minute markers are positioned in less than 1 millimeter of space between the curved dial and the sapphire crystal glass, requiring master craftsmen to demonstrate exceptional skill and unwavering concentration to avoid damaging the curved components. The date window is located at 6 o'clock, exuding sophistication and simplicity.
Through the openwork case back of the watch, one can appreciate the 22K gold oscillating weight inspired by the Maltese cross.
PPF presents timepieces that combine exquisite craftsmanship and aesthetic design to meet the expectations of watch enthusiasts and embody the brand's philosophy.
