The true P3000 "Super Clone" is a new creation by the factories (well, several years new) ... it mimics exactly the Genuine P3000 (2 barrels) ... however there are a few tell tale signs ... there are screws missing on the clone P3000 and the clone balance wheel regulator looks nothing like the Genuine one (I have side by side comparison)
However, for what it's worth .... it's a great looking clone and does the Job really well .. especially when serviced and cleaned. I ripped these photos off from RG ... but I have the same movements to compare here.

Good to know, thanks for sharing! Now, I am hoping the factory come out with an 8 days rep, best will be the P.2002!

Good information about the P3000 here!
I gave the movement a full wind Thursday noon last week and it stopped in the middle of the night this morning, close to six days and as Simonix wrote 5-6 days I am content with the outcome.

@yoda. I thought I had more pics.... But I used pins to align bridges cause aligning those four wheels was a PITA... Yup 6 days reserve... I was able to grab a spare too... (Not for sale).

LOL! Yes, aligning wheels is a bit of a pain in the ass.

There are some write up in the RG forums about servicing these movements ... the challenges. The are dirty and usually dry.

A member of old forum was able to source these for a group buy a couple years ago.

I have this clone or similar, it’s better then 6497 with glued 2 plates. But it still have one aluminium brigade glued on top, it is running around 6days. I do not have p3000, I have p2002, and if you examine under magnification the balance assembly.... it is so fare higher execution then any replica. If someone want I can make super macro on Monday.
