Is the BR01-92 really an ETA movement or.......?

[TmeShare]

I see that there is a new Bell & Ross BR01-92 being sold by many sellers and the claim is that it has a real ETA movement in the watch. Does any one know if this is correct?

The prices on these watches seems way too low to have a real ETA movement OR is this like the 1st round of the BR01-92 watch which sellers claimed had an ETA moevment only to be discovered that it is a cheap movement.

Can you cite specific links to the watches? The B&R movement issue has been beaten like a dead horse around here.

No, it is true. King now claims to have two versions on this watch in the last month or so. An asian ETA copy for $270 and a bonefide ETA for $350. I have yet to find out from him which ETA this is sporting. If it's the 2836-2 then it would account for the extra cost and seem a fair price. I've emailed him to say if he can guarantee it is an ETA and he says yes so what do we think?

I would not say that $350 is a fair price for that watch with a 2836, if it had a Genuine and i mean genuine 2892 i might just find that fair but only just, look what you can get from silix with a 2836 and at what he charges, is this a super rep, IE super luminover, 1 to 1 and all singing and dancing, $350? the only thing singing are the collectors all the way to the bank. I would like to get the dealers to justify this price, and they can! it is justified to them because people will pay it. That is the sad fact.
