Hi guys! Was checking out the Decima Xa MAS on the Bay: I like chuncky pieces and I must say that the Italian divers are some pieces of art. It's told that the F2560 from ETA is beating in the bottom of this titanium monster. But! I can't find any reference about this automatic movement: Even on ETA's site.Anybody heard about that movement? Please, send pics if you got thatCamera_photos.gi

From the sounds of it maybe comparable to the 2824 but not sure. Would like to see one. Wondering if it is a older Eta movement?

Thanks! But it's not in the pink pages and not to find anywhere...They name it everywhere the Decima is, but nowhere else apparently! Wierd!

I doubt that ETA would have make this caliber for them and if it would be so, why would they say on them annonce: "The Swiss movement calibre F2560 housed in the Strumento XZ221 is chosen for its precision, reliability, durability and resistance to shocks.":shock: ?????? How can a "new-born" movement can be reputated as a "tractor"???
Well, all the specs are the same as a 2824.2 and it sound very much like that in all: But why changing the name to F2560? Maybe it's a 2824.2 with a custom-module...?
:?

If it's so: That's a nice commercial move to make this movement sound more exclusive.......
