migiandone Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Silix Watch are very cheaper, (quartz movement), some experience in this kind of watches? Are the same watches of the ones with eta mov? Same bulding qualities? Thx in advance. MIG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Tracy Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 I once ordered a whole boatload of automatics, so though I can't speak for his quartz line, the autos were all pretty good material wise, though his JLC reversos were made of pot metal {which he said he would discontinue.} I think if you go for Rolax, Omega and some of the other heavy duty lines then you are safer than some of the Jewerly lines like patek and such. Goodl Luck ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not the same as the ETA watches. The quality in the ETA watches all the way around - dial, bracelet, case, plating, screws, etc. - is generally much better. Just my 2 cents.

Chronus Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'm considering the cheaper ones for the more outlandish models... eg. the cola mariner (not that i will get that!). A good cheap option to try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
