David543 0 Posted March 24, 2011 ETA said they were phasing out movement supply to 3rd parties about 3yrs ago. They are part of the Richmond group I think that owns a load of genuine brands. Sorry hazy on exact details. Sellita are what the genuine watch makers who did use ETA are moving to so should be fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Member X 91 Posted March 25, 2011 I believe there is a rep Sellita SW200 out now (damn, these chinese are efficient lol) but we have yet to see pics of it or have one to inspect... It is a good movement though, basically they are near identical to the ETA movements that will become increasingly difficult to get hold of, unless you're buying clone/chinese movements!

KBH 7 Posted March 25, 2011 I'll also add that Sellita is in fact a Swiss company and they used to make parts/ebauches/movements for ETA from what I remember reading. Also the SW200 is 26 jewels rather than the ETA 25 jewel movements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
