The Watch Thread - Part 9

[naro]

Took leave to do some spring cleaning.

Some heavy lifting required. So putting my Tisell Sub to good use.

Anyone knows any good places that sell nice watches like 24:01 brand from Zalora?

Zalora have sale right now but I'm not sure if their watches are durable enough. Quite cheap and very nice imo.

Agreed, the SW200 is apparently a direct clone of and replacement for the ETA 2824-2. When I was reading up on Tag Heuer's Caliber 5, some sources mentioned that it uses a ETA 2824-2 as a base, others said it uses Sellita SW 200 as a base. What I believe is that Tag initially used ETA 2824-2, but recently switched over to SW 200 quietly. To me, there is no difference. Consider this paragraph from an ABTW article:

Sellita is a Swiss movement manufacturer and for the most part copies ETA movements. It does this because it has the machinery capable of such work, along with the fact that the ETA designs are old enough to likely no longer be protected under any Patent rights. For this reason Sellita can make copies of ETA movements just like drug companies can make generic drugs after a period of time.

Also the Soprod A10 is considered a level above the ETA 2824-2, hence no surprise that it's more expensive.

how about A10-2 vs eta 2892?

單單那Soprod A10機芯已經值回票價了，再加上陶瓷外圈，鈦金錶殼錶帶。。。更是物超所值！
Hamilton, Tissot, Victorinox, 該沒有同等產品吧？

It looks good to me though... The black on the strap complements the black bezel and dial and the grey complements the titanium case!

No wonder!

I wasn't aware that this Tisell model is available with dark blue dial and without a cyclops.

Are u aware that Soprod A10 is basically a Seiko 4L25 movement.

how about A10-2 vs eta 2892?

I didn't know that! I haven't done a in depth research on the A10 movement and I'm not familiar with the ETA 2892 too... Most watches that contain that movement is out of my budget hahaha.

Yes, u can customize it! Just need to send Tisell an email.

You can even send Tisell snow flake hands and they'll fix it for you for free.
