Takken 0 Posted March 23, 2011 I'm buying this Rolex version with the correct "10" on bezel, but there are two version on the movement. What do you guys believe is the best to choose? 1. Swiss ETA 2836-2? 2. Asian clone 3135? Thanks for your opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alw 0 Posted March 23, 2011 I just ordered one with Swiss ETA. Why? Because I´m just paranoid about Asian movements, although they should be alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted March 23, 2011 1. Swiss ETA 2836-2 If you're going with the Asian clone, don't waste your money on those fake Rolex bridges. They won't be seen and are more problematic than the plain clone ETA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amit 72 Posted March 23, 2011 usually swiss movement are just asian clones dressed up. although i hear asian 3135 are not too reliable, i'm sure others will be able to confirm or refute Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you certain about Selita movement reps? If they exist, it's better to know that, since many will believe they are "save" with choosing the Selita.
