dood Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Seller is trying to pass this off as a genuine Sellita SW240. But it looks like an asian 2836 clone to me. Am I wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EbolaVirus Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 It does say eta on it. Having said that it "looks" like a gen eta to me. Rotor text is clean and tight and spaced from the edge. Rotor screw and bearing looks rightIt would be good to get a clearer picture of the era logo and 2836-2 text. Also would be good to see the hold and silver gears which are under the left of the rotor.You should also wait for a few more opinions to be sure! Sent from my Guide using the Sub-Etha Net.

dood Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Thanks! I noticed that the engravings look sharp and good quality and color of gold looks correct. My confusion is because when I first ordered the watch I was told that ETA movements are no longer available and they could only get Sellita SW240 if I wanted a Swiss movement. Seller just emailed me saying that it's a gen ETA and it's a dealer with a very good reputation so I'll probably take their word for it.

SSTEEL Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 FYI Sellita are stamped SW2XX, and their rotors usually indicate 26 Jewels. That's clearly as ETA 2836-2 as I told you on RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
