themannier 0 Posted February 13, 2013 I know very well the eta 2836-2 cause i had to repair one, i am 100% sure that this one is a genuine swiss model with the Novadiac antischok(can be called KIF too); some of them can be built with the incablock sometimes !

razorblade 0 Posted February 13, 2013 The debate over swiss and clone continues, it's really difficult to differentiate between this 2. But it's for sure this isn't a 3135 clone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abagnale 0 Posted February 13, 2013 guys, if you see novodiac shok system on low grade etas it's almost certainly a clone... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.Eric 693 Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) That superclone looks like the movement in my DSSD I got from Mary. It was sold as an "upgraded" asian eta. It looks so good, I have a hard time telling if it is a clone And Happy Birthday Del!! :bcake: :bcake: :bcake: Edited February 13, 2013 by J.Eric Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conx 0 Posted February 13, 2013 As it clearly isnt a 3135, I suggest you get a moderator involved Del. If you need help finding one, they are the guys in blue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted February 13, 2013 I recently picked up a "BP Factory" DSSD with (apparently) an Asian clone 3135 movement. The pics below show what's inside - any thoughts? Isn't this a bog standard Asian clone 2836-2 with a Rolex sticker on the rotor? I thought the clone 3135s had more "Rolex stampings" and, at the very least, stated "3135" somewhere! I believe that the clone 2836-2 version is about $100 cheaper than the clone 3135 version too? Comments welcome! I expected to see something along these lines:- yes mate that is CLone eta I think best option to go , as the clone 3135 is just stupid. great buy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted February 13, 2013 looks to be swiss ETA hard to tell, take a look at this and let us know if it is curved or straight. Curved will be ETA, straight is clone Not always correct. Hangzhou clone has straight, Seagull clone - curved. Here's Seagull clone without stamp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
