SSTEEL Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Either my friend, both look fine, although neither have a regulator though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dditty708 Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 SSTEEL I am not an expert on reps, but I read on RWG eveyday.. What exactly does a regulator do? Can you explain and show me some pics compared to the Gen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSTEEL Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) SSTEEL I am not an expert on reps, but I read on RWG eveyday.. What exactly does a regulator do? Can you explain and show me some pics compared to the Gen? Here's a tagged photo of my Swiss ETA 2386-2 for comparison my friend. Hope it helps. The regulator is to the left of the title words "Close up". This basically allows you to fine tune the movement to get it more accurate. Here's a better photo showing the regulator..

panerai153 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 why doesn't that movement have a regulator? It's listed as a Swiss ETA 2836 modified?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dditty708 Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 SSTEEL thanks for the pictures and the knowledge. Do you have any input on the accuracy of the watches other than the regulator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSTEEL Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 why doesn't that movement have a regulator? It's listed as a Swiss ETA 2836 modified?? I have no idea, so would suggest dditty708 asking Andrew about this. SSTEEL thanks for the pictures and the knowledge. Do you have any input on the accuracy of the watches other than the regulator? I don't have any experience with those ETA movements, but my ETA keeps perfect time. Maybe those are cloned ETA? I'm unsure, best to ask Andrew mate.
