ETA 2834-2 - Gen or Fake?

[interaktiv]

Hello,

can someone please tell me whether this is a gen ETA 2834-2 movement, or Asian?

 

[flin0310]

Of course Asian !

Possibly gen, but the rotor is Asian.

Yeah, that rotor finish is rough.     So when in doubt, assume asian.

Its a tough call because even some of the asain eta movements have the Eta engravings, the best way is to see where the top cap jewels for the balance wheel on top have two notches to remove the jewel and the shock absorbing spring.

This is probably actually a legit ETA. The cutouts for the shock protection system has 3 lobes where the asians usually only have 1 lobe. Don't sweat it

Hey Inter,

It's hard to tell with the photo you are showing - we really need a macro shot of the shock absorber (the red jewel above the balance wheel) and the stampings.  It looks to me like the "furrows" in the shock mount are not too deep, which indicates Asian, and I can't see the stampings clearly enough to judge by them.  But this will help:

If you can get the movement magnified, that post should help you decide.
