jbz73 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hi Guys, I'm in dire need of an expert opinion. I found a PO with the option of the Swiss Eta 2824-2 or Asia ETA 2836. What are the pros and cons of each movement? The 2836 is 50 less. Which is more reliable? Thanks in advance for your much needed help.

FxrAndy Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Both can be reliable and serviced, best would be the swiss but more value for money would be the asian 2836 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbchubb Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 If you want it reliable, have it serviced. Even the "swiss" movements coming from China can crap out if not serviced. Swiss does not mean the Movement comes directly from the factory in Switzerland and was assembled in a clean room as per Swiss specs.
