The word around town is that it isnt a eta 2824 but instead a Claro Semang CL888 but you might want to verify it yourself. |

Brotha T I like the watch also when jacky first showed it to me and had thought about getting one. Later I found out that someone had did a review and found out that it wasnt what was specified so, I emailed jacky to let him know as well. In doing so it seems like this claro group was apart of the original group before swatch took over. This is all speculation on my part so dont quote me. I here that the watch hacks but stutters a lil sometimes and it may not be (stuttering) in all the watches. I still like the watch and I hope you got a great deal for your trade. Going price now is somewhere around $315-$340 I think:cool: |

Christ almighty, with the lack of info on this watch and the dubious accuracy of what is out there I am tempted to say stay the hell away from it. I blame Fossil for the lack of info on Zodiac's site which has led resellers to just make stuff up in answer to WIS questions. Half of them are still saying it has a 2824 in it. Classybrand claims the Claro Semag is made by Miyota? That's wrong...they are made by George J. VonBurg in Switzerland. |
