watchski Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Just curious what you experts think? I am trying to decide on a sub... Some with the swiss ETA 2836 and some with 2836-2? Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks Engineering and design is the key here, not "finished and spit polished in Switzerland". The Swiss government's loophole filled , loosely interpreted guidelines on what constitutes Swiss Made make the trademark almost meaningless, at least as it applies to swiss watch parts made outside of Switzerland. If you want a true Swiss origins movement, you will have to go with an in-house movement from a Swiss company like AP or Girard Perregeaux etc.. The difference between a China made for ETA 2836 and a Swiss finished China made for ETA 2836...almost nothing, well except the shine and the labeling.
