I'm a sporadic lurker, infrequent poster, multiple-time buyer on RWG. I'm hoping for the community's input on a question.
I've become enamored of the new Cartier Drive and am going to pick up a rep. The only TDs who have them, I think, are trustytime and Angus at puretime.
Trustytime's movement is listed as Asian 21J Automatic Movement and is offered at $138. Link to his page is http://www.trustytime01.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=21_448&products_id=15217.
Angus's movement is listed as Asian 23J Automatic Movement and is offered at $218. Link to his page is http://puretime01.com/drive-de-cartier-ss-white-textured-dial-on-black-leather-strap-a23j.html.
All the other specs look the same to me, although more astute members may tell me differently after looking at the pages.
I have heard it said that many of the Asian 21J movements are in fact the exact same as the 23J movements. I don't know how true that is?
Please tell me: is there any reason I should think about paying $80 more with Angus?
