Fireman_Fred Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've just ordered a 45mm PO from Jay & Angel and they told me (after they sent it) that it comes (as standard) with a Swiss ETA 2836 movement but if I wanted, I could have it with a Swis ETA 2824..What is the difference? Am I better off sticking with the 2836 or send it back to get the 2824? Please help a poor confused non-horologist ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrgod Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 No real difference, almost the same movement. 2836 can provide day and date, while 2824 can only provide date. I belive there also is a slight difference in the teoretical power reserve. On eta.ch you can download the spec sheets for all eta movements.

Pugwash Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 In terms of accuracy and smoothness, they're identical. The only real difference is the 2836 has a day wheel and is slightly thicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
