![[EN] ETA or Sellita movements? Do you know what are they and what are the differences?](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/P6IauhuBhvQ/mqdefault.jpg)
Smooth videography and clear explanations on why the Sellita and ETA movements have become what they are now. With that said, I'm not one to pay too much attention to the movement itself but you made me realise how many watches sitting in my boxes use a similar base. Recently bought a MOP 35mm Tissot PRX to gift my wife and it runs on a Powermatic 80 which is based on the ETA 2824.
Nice gift! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Thank you for the clear and useful information 🤔
Thank you for taking the time to watch!
Great video. Extremely informative. Longline Conquest!
@@paullawless932 thank you so much!
This popped up on my feed -and I’m glad. I learned much from it. My Tissot has the ETA movement. I’m also looking at a Christopher Ward and this video helped me understand it’s SW200 movement -and specifically the idea that micros make changes to it, sometimes resulting in a designation that makes it appear in-house. Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and leave a comment like this! I hope you sub and hang out as the channel grows!
Nearly bought myself a Hamilton Murph using the H-10 movement this weekend. Decided to wait a little longer before going for it. Another great video, I love coming into a video that has a topic I am familiar with and still learning from it. Thanks for a chance at that Seiko!
Thank you so much, I appreciate the kind comment!
Thanks for the breakdown of these movements, I didn't realize that Sellitas and ETAs were in so many watches on my wish list lol. For example, I have the Tissot LeLocle on my radar as an affordable dressy piece and was pleased to learn that it has the ETA 2824. Seems like a real workhorse movement for the value.
It seems no matter what watch you’re looking there is a high chance it will have one of these or at least something related. Thank you for watching?
Montblanc also uses movements that are based on the SW200. For instance the Montblanc 1858 Iced Sea Automatic is caliber MB 24.17 which is based on SW200.
Quality video btw. Keep em coming :)
They got a few crazy dials. Thank you so much for the kind words!
Dont cut your self short in the video edit, man. Video edit is not only about cool transisions. Its about keeping the viewer engaged and not skipping along. Your're doing it good. Your videos are really good, both in production and the content.
As of the contest; Tudor Heritage Black Bay 36 (79500-0002), black dial brown strap. Using the ETA caliber 2824-2.
My latest watch, bought 2nd hand a few days ago was a $60 Timex Q reissue, Stainless Steel/Stainless Steel version with black dial. Couldnt pass at that price, RP around $200 and the watch was like brand new, not even a spec of dust.
Thank you so much!!!!!! I truly appreciate you taking the time to say that. I do photography as a hobby so I have spent a lot of time with a camera in my hand but have always shied away from video. Needless to say that starting this channel is forcing me to learn a lot and really fast so the complement really hits home. Congrats on the Timex find!
@@BlueCollarLuxe I can tell! I quite my job at the factory to chase my dream ten years ago. Got two bachelors, one in photojournalism and one in journalism. Today Im working as a journalist - but still see my self as a blue-collar after nearly 20 years as one :)
Keep it up!
Wow, that is awesome, congratulation on having the courage to do that! I think photojournalism sounds like a very cool job. I would think it can be very challenging but also very rewarding.
This was such a fun video to watch and a surprise to see the same movements equipped in many watches from different brands. Fascinating too how even some variants of the Tudor Black Bay used the ETA movement.
Thank you so much, that is very kind of you! I truly appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Really enjoyed this video. My watch interest has definitely started because of the external appearances, but as a mechanical engineer I have started to dive into the pieces that make up different movements. Didn't realize that these workhouse movements were being white labelled by brands, and its super interesting to see that the Hamilton Khaki Murph uses the tried and tested ETA 2824-2 (I know because I looked at the number of jewels lol). Keep up the good work. On an unrelated note, craft coffee has been my main hobby since covid lockdowns so can definitely appreciate the analogy!
Thank you so much for such an awesome comment. Honestly, I kind of feel I put so much info in this video that it became boring so it is nice to know that someone watched the whole thing and was able to without losing attention. Still trying to find my spot where I can inform while still being entertaining enough to keep attention. Hopefully the videos just keep getting better so thank you for watching!
Thanks for the lesson mate. I have a Sinn 556i which still has the gold rotor that I love to bits!
Read through some of the comments, I can't believe how many time the 556 has been mentioned. Thank you for watching!
As a massive Casio fan i have had only two watches that were based off the ETA 28 movements both are Hamilton the Khaki field automatic and the manual. The only one i still have is Hamilton manual wind Khaki, i would never part with this beauty. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for watching! I wouldn't get rid of the Khaki either.
I had no idea how many watch companies use ETA 2824 and SW200 movements to power their watches. Tissot powermatic 80 would be my favorite for sure
Great video
Thank you so much!
The Powermatic 80 CO7-111 uses plastic parts which kinda turned me off to the Tissot watch brand although I dig the Tissot Gentleman Silicium. It still using the older all metal movement.
The Gentleman is a great looking watch!
“Yeahh plastic crap “according to my watch repair guy when he saw my Mido with powermatic 80.
I think Japan is a leading country now cuz ordinary nh 35 is arguably the most reliable caliber in the world and very easy to service according again to my watch guy,Seiko 6139 had a massive impact on all future copycats of vertical clutch 6139.Piguet,JLC,Hublot,Omega,Breitling,Tag,Sinn and manny others use vertical clutch.Seiko pioneered quartz and Spring drive so horologically Seiko and Bregeut are more important then all swiss brands and movement makers combined.
Well said! Everyone always forgets Bregeut invented the tourbillon.
I looked up watches with movements based on both the ETA 2824 and the Sellita SW200. The first thing I noticed was, as you pointed out, the large array of watches of all prices that have these movements. But, lucky for me, one of the watches I’ve already had on my wish list has the 2824 movement; that is, the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto. Thanks for another good vid!
Thank you so much and great pick!
If It's new that's the Powermatic!
I prefer the Non Powermatic movements but the new Tissot Heritage is not Powermatic ! It is a Cosc#2824 Chronometer for around 825.00 MSRP!
@@davidcrandall4958 you’re saying that the Hamilton khaki field auto is no longer 2824?
It's the new version of the 2824! They've lowered the beat rate, added new alloys,some parts are plastic! I believe they have a free sprung balance unlike the original2824's. they're not like the older mvts that were easier to regulate. You might have to send them back to an authorized service center for routine maintenance cleaning and regulating( the whole movement might be swapped out) The power reserve is much longer though !
Interesting video. I love my Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic; mine is extremely accurate. The original movement was acting up as it was hard to "get it going." Once it finally was running, it was pretty solid, but it did randomly stop a couple of times. I took it to one of the few watchmakers in my area that is authorized to work on Swatch watches and also Rolex. He wanted $350.00 service the watch.....bummer. It's a $500 watch. I contacted Hamilton customer service and they put me in touch with the Swatch service center in Florida. They offered to service it for $270.00. I figured that was just low enough to induce me to not just "deep six" the watch. I'm not sure if they actually serviced it or slapped in a new movement, but it keeps sensational time, picking up 2 or 3 seconds a day. It is, once again, one of my favorite watches.
Thank you for sharing this, 2/3 seconds a day is crazy good. My bet would be that they did a movement replacement because the movement by itself is very inexpensive.
Just found your channel, I like it! One of my favorite watches, Ball Marvelight II uses a in house version of the ETA2824 or Sellita 200, I’m not sure which as I have never opened the case, but as you said, it doesn’t really matter!
That is a great watch, thank you so much! Ball uses both ETA and Sellita but my bet would be the Sellita 200 because ETA is owned by the Swatch Group and are not sharing outside the umbrella as much as they use to.
I came looking for this subject. And I found it.
Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment!
The tag carrera uses the eta 2824-2 movement & it’s a watch that is on my list as I move through my watch collecting journey. Thank you for the educational video!
Tag make some great looking watches and can be picked up at a good deal pre-owned. To be honest I would not suggest buying Tag new. Let the original buyer eat the loss of equity.
@@BlueCollarLuxethat’s great to know! Thanks for the tip 🙌
My pleasure!
I didn't realize how many brands use this movement in their watches, but I like Tudor Black Bay the most
Thanks for the informative video
Love the Black Bay! Thank you for watching!
nice to see your appreciation of ball watches my ball marvelight has been in the collection for a few of my life milestones
I have been a fan of Ball since the early 2000s, I think I discovered them around 2003. I have owned a few, still own one and gifted one to my son for Christmas three years ago. Great watch!
Great video. I was surprised to see the Oris Aquis Titanium Date uses the Sellita SW200¡
Thank you so much!!!!!
I have a few watches with both the ETA-2824 and the SW-200 with my Hamilton being one of them. Thanks for sharing, the opportunity and generosity. Stay blessed and good luck to all.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Great topic and well done video
My most worn watch is the Tissot Powermatic 80
Thank you so much! Great watch!
Just what I was looking for, thank you. Well done.
Thank you so much!
Excellent content 👏 love the breitling also.
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate you watching!
Great video mate, my P80 Mido Multifort keeps time insanely well
Thank you so much!
I have a now discontinued Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic H705450 based on ETA 2824-2 movement. New model uses a revised H.10 movement. Similar but with much higher 80hr power reserve, and sadly slower seconds hand at 3hz vs 4hz as on the 2824-2.
I also have my sights on a Ginault Ocean Rover II that uses a Sellita SW200-1 Elabore and they regulate the watch for 6 weeks before shipping. All reviews speak very highly of the watch’s stable accuracy. These are true workhorse movements 💪🏼!
I have commented on this a few times and I am with you, 80 hours is great but some of the brands are slowing the beat rate down to a point the seconds hand looks like a quartz. I have see nothing but good things about Ginault my problem is they are too much of a Sub copy.
The Sinn U1 uses a SW 200-1. Nice way to start a video btw. Now I need another coffee, cheers.
You mean this one "Sinn U1 C HAI Fully Tegimented Limited Edition on Silicone Strap" if so, wow what a great pick! Problem is at 3k there are a lot of options to choose from for example, I love IWC but for the price tag that come with them I love a lot of other watches more. The only way I will ever own one is if I get a great deal.
@@BlueCollarLuxe Yupp, that's the one. Also check out the sold out limited edition U1W with inverted colors.
Great Watch!
My khaki field with the gold and silver dial is one of my favorites. Excellent video.
Thank you so much!
I thought the coffee video was cool 😉👍
Thank you, I appreciate that!!!!!
Appreciate the knowledge. Currently waiting on a Makita Mephisto III, powered by SW200-1.
Congrats, I had to go take a look, love that dial! Thank you so much for watching!
Was looking at the Mido Commander Chronometer with the blue dial. Beautiful watch for the price ❤
Mido make some very cool watches!
So the movement architecture is the same. The differences are in the materials, testing, certifcation. Like framing the same house out of pine versus oak. Same looking house, but one's posh, the other one is standard. I believe my Glycine Combat Sub uses a SW200 version.
That is a really good analogy!
dude hearing you say how pricey the traditional Breitling Navitimer is felt very real. the time-only you have is what I prefer as well. workhorse movement for a reason
Yeah, Breitling have kinda got crazy with their pricing but then again it seems all the brands have. Thank you so much for watching!
When I first got interested in watches, I came across the microbrand Maen and their Manhattan 37 watch. The watch allows you to upgrade from a Sellita SW200-1 to a “Top grade version” of that movement. First time I ever heard of the concept of “grading” movements. Cool looking watch too.
I just took a look and they got some great looking dials!
The Sinn 556 I RS has a SW200 in it, and it is a great looking simple watch. It is interesting to see what a wide variety of watches these movements are found in.
Great pick, the 556 is loved by a ton of people! I have not had the chance to get one in hand but I do like the way they look.
It gets really interesting when the B17 is compared to the SW200 Cosc used in for instance the Formex Essence or the SW300 Cosc used in the CW Twelve Titanium... Difference of both $4k -$4.5k with the Breitling... And the Formex and the CW are also top notch when it comes to finishing etc.
I just did a video on the Christopher Ward Twelve with the SW 300. Great watch!
New subscriber here, my friend sent me
I must say your Brietling is stunner but Tudor Black Bay with ETA2824 movement is just amazing watch
Thank you so much, for the complement and the sub! I am a big fan of Tudor, in fact I wear my Black Bay 41 a lot more than the Breitling so great choice!
Coffe scene was on point 😂
IMHO I would be more inclined to the Ball Fireman Victory because I don't like any of the current or vintage Breitling watches. A watch that I really love and also uses the ETA 2824-2 it's the Doxa SUB 300.
I have been thinking of picking the orange one up!
Thank you so much! Have you looked at the at the new Breitling Chronomat with the Green Dial? May change your mind!
Sinn 556 is great looking watch
Great video my friend
Thank you so much for. the complement and great choice with the 556!
A hot cup of coffee always works wonders with a good watch on the wrist. Like the Breitling Navitimer you have on buddy!
A good glass a bourbon does as well! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment.
One watch Ive had my eye on for a long time that has the eta 2824 movement, is the tudor 1926. That watch is so smooth and I fell in love with it so long ago. The bracelet is to die for.
And priced very well to carry the Tudor name!
For those wondering, a standard grade ETA 2824 costs about $100 new, a top grade is about $300. "Chronometer Grade" in the 2824 uses the same parts as top grade but it obviously adjusted in more positions and are also "binned". Meaning the best of the top-grade, which can meet the COSC standards are separated and sold as chronometer grade (usually only to watch companies). Many top grade 2824s meet the COSC standards too, they just aren't guaranteed to do so.
Your comment is 100% fact! There are a tone of watches that meet the standard but forgo the testing so they loos the right to say it. Thank you so much for watching!
I'm totally new to watches and am so much more familiar with japanese movements especially Seiko but didn't realize that the ETA 2824 and the SW 200 were literally everywhere. Anyways I think I'll leave a quote from WOE that sketchy dudes wear breitlings and in that case, the breitlings superocean automatic is pretty sick even if it one day makes me a sketchy dude.
That is funny, well done!
The Sinn 556 has a SW 200 in it and it looks spectacular. A couple of Hamiltons I own have them too and I'm surprised by the difference in price but not the reliability in brands, thanks.
The 556 gets a ton of love, I really need to get hands on with that watch! Thanks for watching!
The Victorinox Airboss caught my attention as my next AV8 watch.
I really like the Bezel on that watch! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
The Christopher Ward C65 Sandhurst is an awesome looking field watch that uses the Sellita sw200, never realised how many watches used these movements!
I think at the moment Christopher Ward is my favorite mico-brand.
I have a Fortis combat 5 with sw200 Excellent movement.
Nice watch!
Movement names can be confusing. German flieger watch company Laco likes to rename their third-party movements, likely to make it sound more "in house". For example the "Laco 31" movement is actually a Miyota 8315, the "Laco 200" is a Sellita SW200 and the "Laco 24" used to be the ETA 2824-2. A watch featuring the SW200 would be the Laco Atacama.
A lot of good info there so thank you! I have been thinking of doing one of the builds from DIY Watch club with an upgraded 8315 Miyota movement and making a video out of it. Think that would be a good video to watch?
@@BlueCollarLuxe Sure thing, and please let us know what you think of the unidirectional automatic winding of the Miyotas.
Thanks for the content, man.
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for covering the ETA 2824 and SW 200 - the Swiss workhorses.
Would love to get a Chris Ward c60 Trident Pro 300 - with a SW200 great value for the money!
Love the c60, thank you for watching!
Loved ur explanation of the 2 movements.
Any info on my watch.
It's a Revue Thommen. 26 jewel and + 7 seconds taken over 19 days. Never off my wrist. Keep up the good work..Alex
Thank you so much Alex! Revue Thommen is new to me but I would say 7 seconds over 19 days is pretty impressive.
Sorry I miss wrote that. It should have said 7 seconds per day ovr 19 days.
That changes things a bit
Yeah, that kinda changes it just a bit, lol! But you do realize, that is only a few seconds off from a watch that has COSC certification
Too many watch brands rely on the ETA2824 but thats good because it makes servicing so much easier hahaha. I'm gonna give a mention to my Certina Action Diver
I believe they are owned by the Swatch group, right?
I have a Zelos Comet with a Sellita 215 (I don't know what the difference is between the SW200 and SW215, but it's probably not much) as my daily wearer, and it's rarely off more than 20 sec. per day. Excellent time keeper for a manual wind.
That is a great looking watch!
Swatch group brands all use movements branded as "in house" but based off ETA-2824s which is natural considering what you said in the video. I'm a fan of Tissot Seastar's diver designs.
Most of them share ETA movements but a few have In-House as well.
Had a look and out of nicer watches including the SW-200 I would have to pick the Eterna Kontiki Automatic Four-Hands 42MM! Might be a bit big for me but it looks amazing.
I think this may be one of my favorite comments because of the choice. Number one I personally really like Eterna and number two and I am not sure if you know this but ETERNA is the company that started ETA movements. They sold ETA to the Swatch Group in the early 80s. So great pick!
I love the Folgers instant coffee intro!
Thank you so much!
I got one you probably never heard of 😂
The Aragon Hercules Meteorite Swiss, which uses the Ronda R150😎
You got me on this one but I did take a look. Great looking dials, cool bracelet and very affordable!
The ETA 2824 is great. Nice and reliable beater. The Doxa SUB1000T Professional uses one with a custom rotor and is one of my favorites.
I really like Doxa
We love Seikos no matter which design. Legendary for good reason. Tissot Pr100
I have been eyeing Grand Seiko for a long minute!
Not saying that these are bad movements, but the spirit of endeavour means changing and improving and innovating. And to me, decades-old movements represents stagnation. However, it should be noted that the upgraded and extended power movements coming out of the Swatch Group (and ETA) are not stagnation; They know that they have to work harder to earn your money. Whether it’s an ETA 2824 base is not as important as the fact that they improved upon it. And then I look at CW, SIN, Dekla, and countless others, and they’re satisfied with just reskinning the same-old, same-old. Here’s an egg. Now I got another egg, just painted different. How much money can they expect to extract on minimal effort? That’s the kind of thinking that earns a quartz crisis.
Well thought out and something to think about for sure. I would say that it may have been the opposite on the quartz crisis, instead of stagnation maybe it was the innovation of a superior movement that just about killed the auto and mechanical. Factor in how expensive it is to develop a movement and it would put small brands like Christopher and Sinn out of business. With that said they could combine resources and make magic happen! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Tag Heuer Carrera is one of the eta 2824 watches. 👍
Good pick!
I know that Christopher Ward uses the eta-2824 movement and those are well regarded. Just like a big rig truck having a cummins engine if it’s good and everyone uses it then that’s a big deal
I am a big fan of Christopher Ward! Thank you for watching!
I have a lot of watches with these movements, and they do me just fine! I do like more expensive brands too. However, I just can't justify spending $5-6k plus when I have Hamilton, Tissot, Longines, Oris, Ball, Christopher Ward, etc. I mean, I love my Orient's (in-house movement) that cost me under $200. I'm happy to spend less on great value and have more options in my box.
We do it for the love! Thank you so much for watching!
I believe that some Unimatic watches (Modello uno?) use Sellita SW200 movements. Now they also use Seiko NH35A movements, but I am not sure if that movement is at all related or modeled after either the Sellita or ETA2824 movements.
Dive watch without bezel markers, kind of strange but cool at the same time.
My daily which is a Hamilton Murph has always run amazingly well
I love that watch, wish they made a 40mm version.
Very informative video!
Thank you so much, I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
I believe the Tudor Black Bay 41 uses the ETA 2824-2 movement. It's a real classy watch and is on my grail list. I have my DressKX to scratch that itch for now.
It did until 2023 when they went In-House. I have the BB 41 with the anthracite dial on my wrist right now! You can tell the In-House by the text on the dial. If the text is straight, it is In-house and if it is curved it is an ETA movement. These are nicknamed the Smily because the text is shaped like a smile.
The Hamilton Khali Field Auto is in my wishlist at the moment and it’s neat the H-10 calibre movement used in it is modified from an ETA 2824 movement
Great watch! Thank you for watching!
Baume & Mercier Riviera (an underrated gem)
Underrated brand!
Not just large brands but even microbrands use the ETA caliber 2824. One of them is the Venture from Raven
Spot on, micro-brands have no choice as in-house cost a lot of money to develop and take years to get right!
GL224 by Glycine in my Combat Sub reference #GL0291 I believe is a Sellita Caliber SW200-1. I think Glycine used 2824's in Combat Subs before Swatch group prohibited the sale of ETA movements pre-2020. My Glycine Combat Moonphase #GL0386 uses a GL280 movement which may be the Sellita SW280-1.
Going to be honest and I know this is going to sound strange as I collect watches but I have never seen a Glycine in person only on video. I definitely want to check one out!
@@BlueCollarLuxe incredibly good quality watch for the money I feel and keeps great time on my winder at -1sec/day dial up. Now owned by Invicta, I think the brand and or low price brings a certain hesitation for some potential buyers. Some of the colorways of the Airman are outrageously ugly. I have a small 6.5 inch wrist for the 42mm Sub but they do now make a 39mm. My moonphase at 40mm is gorgeous and fits great on the wrist; it made the winder necessary (for me) and I'm happy I bought it while it was still available even if it is +13/day. I may get it regulated this weekend for the new year. Also might shop for a new watch or two. I've always been a fan of Ball but haven't had the chance to try one on yet. Also been dreaming of certain GMT's by Longines, Tudor, and surprisingly UN under $3k?
I took a look and the moonphase it is a good looking watch. Just my opinion but I would not spend the money getting it regulated and that goes for any watch that is not ready for service to be honest. Spending money just to pick up a few seconds just does not seem worth it, with that said I do not use a winder so I am use to setting my watch when I put it on. I believe your watch has the Selita SW288 which has a +/- of 12 seconds per day meaning your watch is running well. Happy hunting for the new GMT can't go wrong with Tudor or Longines!
came to know about the ETA 2824 movement because of this video! great video indeed, will continue to watch your vids bro, taking abou ETA movement watch, the CALIBER SELLITA SW-200 having the accuracy of +/- 12 seconds per day varies (maximum of +/- 30 sec)
Thank you so much for the support! SW-200 is a work horse and with a bit of regulating can achieve +/- 4 seconds per day.
Certina DS Action Diver is one of my favorites from my collection
And Swatch Group strikes again! Thank you for watching!
Some really cool watches by Laco and Sinn use the SW200. Definitely on the "get it" list.
Thanks!
Laco are making some cool pieces and the are affordable! Thank you for watching!
i love my Tissot prx with a Powermatic 80 which is based on the ETA 2824.
Very popular pick!
awesome i want the seiko 5 to rotate along my hamilton khaki field
It would feel like a tank after wearing the Khaki
Great video mate
I like Hamilton Expedition
It is nice but I still think I would go with the MURPH
your light blue time only breitling navitimer looks freaking gorgeous!
Thank you so much!!!!
Lol the coffee bit was funny
Thank you so much!
I tried on the conquest and a breitling 39 green dial (forgot the name) yesterday but didn’t do it for me.
You said your editing sucks but you did some Tony stark shit last time 😂😂😂
I love that green dial Breitling Chronomat!!!!!!! Thank you for the compliment l, I think you are talking about the hologram stuff and to be honest I followed a TH-cam tutorial to do that and it took me two days, lol.
@@BlueCollarLuxe that was pretty cool haha.
Thank you!
Vintage(?) Tudors like the Classic 38 often get their movements from ETA
And most of the new ones. I think by the next year or two most of Tudor movements will be In-House excluding the Chrono which uses the Breitling B01 movement.
(for the giveaway - Hamilton Expedition) Checking the number of jewels to differentiate the movement base is helpful advice!
Thank you so much for watching!
Love my Hamilton Khaki Field watch
Thanks for the video and thanks for the giveaway
Lot of history with Hamilton! Thank you for watching!
Is the 2789 a good movement?
Could not tell you to be honest but I took a look and it is a vintage Day Date complication movement and looks like it was only produced from 1969 to 1976 and found its way into some really nice entry level luxury watches so my bet would be that it was a good movement.
Micro brand Lilienthal-berlin (pronounced lee-lientall) uses the Sellita 200 movement in their Zeitgeist model. Originally the brand was designed, and hand made in Germany, with some of the finest materials. Unfortunately this year 2024 they have moved production to Hong Kong, and are using Miyota movement. They are still designed in Germany but that's about it.
This is my first time hearing of this brand but to go from being hand made in Germany to being produced in Hong Kong is not a good sign. I did go take a look though so thank you, as I always love to learn of new brands!
Tissot PRX automatic is on of my favorite watches from my collection
it is a good looking watch!
I love my Tissot Powermatic 80 with ETA 2824 movement
Great watch!
I thought movements were always unique to the watch, apparently not ! It;s used in the ORis aqua which Is one of my favorites
I like the diver 65 by Oris a little more.
Hanhart "Pioneer One" is an incredible flieger watch with a decorated legacy that uses a clone movement based off the ETA 2824
I am learning about a ton of watches that I have never heard of. Took a look and get the IWC vibe and I love IWC, so thanks!
Konstantin Chaykin use 2824 movements
but he build very good modules
eta 2824 have strong barrel spring and this good for modules
I would love to get my hands on one, they have crazy cool dials!
My father used to wear a Tudor 1926 and even after so many years it hasn't required major servicing
I like that watch a lot!
Awesome video, easy to like and subscribe, I like to research the calibers before watch purchases...it's fun learning about them.
One of my favorite watches with the SW200 movement - a top movement calibrated in 5 positions is a Guinand Diver called the FAZ (it's a special edition of 50 pieces but they make a standard catalogue that is a little less expensive. To me, Guinand is one of my favorite manufacturers...a real secret here in America. Oh, and I am not affiliated with Guinand, I just really enjoy their products.
PS I'm not commenting for the raffle, please exclude me...in other words, if I win...choose another who really needs a cool freaking Seiko, my watch box if full.
That is very cool of you. I have not heard of Guinand but I just took a look and think I'll check them out so thanks for the heads up! To be honest I am a bit dive watched out at the moment as they are all I wore for a long time.
Hamilton Khaki Field Murph has been on my wish list for a while now but I still haven't pulled the trigger
I love this watch and really want to add one to the collection but I think it is over priced also a bit large. I would keep an eye out for a preowned that you can save a few bucks on.
I like to get my hands on a Tudar Ranger Heritage which has an ETA 2824 movement. Nice looking watch.
Love it and agree!
Reading through the comments I see a few mentions of Tag Heuer Aquaracer but their Carrera line is also equipped with ETA 2824
Carrera has got some love for sure!
My Christopher Ward C63 Sealander uses a Sellita SW200 and it runs like a beast.
I think I may pick one up for myself!
Didn’t know so many watches used the same movement. The Rado D-Star uses the ETA2824 movement
I have a thing for the Captain Cook so good choice on the Rado!
You gotta check out Norqain. One of their past limited series, the Independence 19, is all you want in an everyday piece and with a movement as reliable as a COSC-certified Cal. NN08 (based off SW-200-1)
Took a look, great dials but a bit pricey.
The Tissot Powermatic 80 is a very popular watch these days
Crazy amount of love this watch gets!
