TAG Heuer Posted April 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Ok thanks, That was my idea also. This one has a date wheel. So could it be A2836 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorFan Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Yeah, they're pretty much identical from the back side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
automatico Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 TH: Here is one way to spot 28xx etaclones: If there is only one notch in the balance jewel setting for the jewel spring, chances are it is an etaclone. ETA has 3 notches. This is for the balance spring type pictured, Incabloc types are another story. I have two watches with etaclones and both have ETA stamping under the balance wheel but both have only one jewel spring notch so that's still the first thing I look at. Some Asian etaclones may have 3 notches by now but I have not seen any...yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Actually I'm thinking it's an Asian 2834-2- the movement is anchored to the case with hold down screws and tabs outside the movement proper. The 2834 has that exterior ring to support the Day wheel. I don't see any markings under the balance wheel, another good indication of a clone.

automatico Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 "But where can I find those notches?" On the top picture, locate the redish purple jewel above the center of the balance wheel. Look closely and you will see a gold three pointed spring ring around the outside diameter of the jewel...this spring holds the balance jewels in place. The silver part just outside of the gold jewel spring is the 'jewel setting' and it has only one notch for removing the three pointed gold spring. Genuine ETAs have three.

capice Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 On the Eta the engraving of the minus and plussign is slightly bolder(on the 2nd version it is) I guess this is an Asian one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
