What Movement is in this watch? I believe I know what it is but the price, decoration and number of jewels is wrong or misprints or something. It seems like someone did some custom decoration on a ETA 289_ something that should have 21 jewels and the price is cheep. http://www.shopathometv.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=25002026

It's a modified 2894 done in-house there in Germany. They were talking about it on the show last night. ;)

I believe that something got lost in the translation because a 2894 is a chronograph movement (trust me) 37 jewels. Not one of those made for TV moments I guess, maybe someone will purchase one and tell us as long as the model # has not been removed by the decoration process. Thanks man, have a good one.

Avery it was the big guy from Riedenschild himself talking about the watch and movement in the watch. He was saying they upgraded and modified the 2894 due to the 2824 and 2836 being so hard to get. If he dose not know what he puts in his own watches that would be bad. They did some real cool close up shots on it. put a whole lot of work into it. I was tempted but tring my best to behave some. ;)

I believe you man but I was listening in and out of a drunken stupor and thought he was making an error. At the time unable to add one and one and get 2,or able to focus on the floor much less the ETA/Val reference manual. I was unable to recall any info other than where the bath room was and if I could make it thought the door, turn the light on, and make it to the toilet. It was just not a high priority. To be honest he is use to doing business in German and just made one of those mistakes that one makes on camera speaking your second language that you have been taught since he was a child, and can speak with out an accent.

Avery the problem is not you it is the non-WIS person they have doing the webpage information. Tim Temple even knows they screw up often. Very often. That blue pearl is suppose to be the "Blue Pearl 2" Here are the specs.

We were all wrong and I will let the watch people on the boards figure it out. Got mine today and it was worth the 15 minutes it took to figure out what they had done. Wish all that purchased them the best of luck with theres.
