Compares a couple Sea-Gull movements to ETA. Picked up from another Forum. http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/viewtopic...st=0&sk=t&sd=a

I'll be sure to check that out. I have at least 2 watches I know have a Sea-Gull movement in them. ;)

Excellent read...although difficult the way it is spread over 9 pages. The conclusion I believe they reached was while the finish was not quite up to the standards of the ETA, the function was every bit as good.

Very interesting, especially as I am trying to learn movement disassembly/assembly. I have 2 Seagull ST-19 chronos, both run very well (the Alpha "Newman" is close to COSC!) and have been more reliable than my Russian 3133's. It will be interesting to see what comes out of China in the next few years... Cheers, Griff

That's pretty much my experience, Griff. In fact, I have one homage that is the most accurate mechanical I own.
