Octo is a company that went out of business in the 70's due to the quartz revolution....so what you have there is reproduction.....the eta 2836 is a automatic and although it can be wound it is not referred to as a handwinding movement.......My understanding is that these new ones surfacing are out of Asia using the Asian eta.;) At $129. it is a  good buy and a great looking watch if you are into vintage styles and a smaller case much like the Mido Commander....Enjoy and let us know what you think when you get ithand6.gif
