I would go ETA, and the watches were released a few weeks ago...  Owning a few watches with the Miyota MOVT, which is a very, very good affordable engine IMHO, I think it's just not in the same league as the ETA in terms of refinements.  Like Oscar (Ogaspar) said, the sweep of the second hand is also waaaaay smoother than the Miyota, and for me, it's a small detail that would make me spend the extra $$$.  I like smooth sweephearteyes.gif I appreciate hacking capabilities but can easily live without since there is different ways to set the time perfectly on none hacking mechanism...So, to me, if you don't care about a super smooth sweep second hand and the hacking function, go with the Miyota and you will save $$$ and get a watch as fantastic as the one with the ETA.  One thing is for sure, you can't go wrong with this watch, no matter the configuration IMO.    Very good choice  hand6.gif
