azerbyjam Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Okay I know this is swiss but which one? Is it an ETA? Any input would be great The stamp under the balance will tell you what it's supposed to be 2824/2836. However, the lack of holes on the reversing wheels suggest this is probably a chinese clone, not a bad movement but not Swiss. A clearer close up of the balance cap assembly would help to make a definite id. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucesreps Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 (edited) This is the only pic i have of the movement which i got from a sales thread here. Edited July 3, 2009 by brucesreps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azerbyjam Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Was listed here in the trade section as swiss A lot of people sell clones as "Swiss" because that's what the dealer advertised the watch as having when they bought it. If you can post a hi res close up of the top of the balance assembly it will be easier to tell exactly what you got there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I edited my oiginal post saying it was listed as swiss after rechecking the auction. If I had a caseback opener then I would take more pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucesreps Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 houndoggie mentioned in the sales thread of JAG that it was swiss. This is why I am asking. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=100374 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
