dobo101 0 Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) found this online when doing research on different movements in different reps. For people who have just started at this hobby like me it should answer many questions. found on https://sites.google...replica-watches Movement Quick Reference Guide ETA 2824-2 One of the more common automatic ETA movements. Commonly found in replicas requiring a standard dial and date wheel. Beats at 28,000 BPH (beats per hour) ETA 2836-2 Similar to the 2824-2, but this one allows for day/date function. ETA 2892-2 A thinner movement similar to the 2824-2. This model is also capable of 28,800bph. ETA 2893-2 Based on the 2892-2, but capable of allowing a GMT function as well. Asian 21j This is one of the most common automatic movements. There are many versions of this movement. Most have proven to be reliable and affordable alternatives to the ETA version. Ticks at 21,600bph. The Asian 21 Jewel movement is almost always Chinese in origin, and it is a work horse movement. Extremely reliable, for long periods of time, this simple movement typically just has one set of hands and a date wheel. The simplicity of the movement itself makes it very reliable. Asian 7750 Has subdials at 12, 9, & 6 that dictate 30 minute counter, running seconds, and 12 hours counter respectively. Also available in the 3-6-9 configuration. Reliability of older 21.6kbph models is constantly up for debate, but the general consensus is that if the watch has running seconds at 9, and is well maintained, you will have a replica that will be reliable. The number one rule with an Asian 7750 is to NEVER change the date while the time is between 10 o’clock & 2 o’clock. Also never reset the chronos while they are running. Both actions may cause damage to the movement. The 7750 with seconds running at 6 is generally the same as the running seconds at 9 version, with an additional module that allows for the seconds to run on the 6 o’clock subdial. This movement is not very reliable, and you should proceed with caution should you decide to purchase a replica with this version ie: Rolex Daytona. Swiss 7750/7753 This movement has become very expensive as of late and is not being offered in many replicas anymore due to the price increase. However, this is a great movement and far more reliable than the Asian version. Buy with confidence. Asian 7753 Similar to the 7750 in that it is an automatic chronograph movement. Subdials are located at 3, 6 & 9. Same issues with reliability. Asian 2824-2 Copy A newer movement that has only recently hit the market. This is similar to the 21j, but it beats at the faster and more accurate to genuine, 28,000bph. Edited July 25, 2014 by dobo101 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
