Product Description
Swiss-made since 1856, Eterna watches are a mark of quality craftsmanship. The Eternity Legacy is minimal by design, but the details are what really speak to its beauty Read More
19 mm wide straps are extremely limited, especially when looking for something spectacular. It would have made much more sense, from an aftermarket perspective, to make the lug width 18 or 20 mm. 19 is unnecessary and inconvenient.
Let me phrase differently...I will buy if someone will confirm the type of clasp. Is it a deployant or not? The photos don't show the reverse/buckle of the strapped variant and information on this watch is scarce.
Thank you delnerdo. I appreciate you taking the time to help in the search.
That's what I came up with too; along with a very out of focus photo where you can kind of see the clasp and it appears large (like a deployant clasp), so I believe you're correct. It would be great if someone from Massdrop would weigh in for a little assurance, but that almost never happens in my experience (I've probably passed on a half dozen drops as a result). I don't know if they're too busy or lazy/just don't care, but I'm certain that I'm not alone.
The Sellita 300 series is on par with ETA 2892 movement. Both movements are used in many watches that go before the COSC certification process. This watch is not COSC certified but it could make the standard if you wanted by taking it to a watchmaker for some fine tuning. I believe both movements are considered superior to the ETA 2824-2 and the Sellita 200 series and are thinner. This is why this watch is so thin at under 10 mm. Very few watches that use this movement come in under $1,000. Funny that Eterna uses this movement. Didn't Eterna create the ETA movements way back in the day? Now they use a Sellita.
roamy360ETA was originally a part of Eterna, who spun it off as a separate company a long time ago. Some time after that Swatch bought ETA. Recently, Swatch has restricted access to ETA movements and parts to companies within the Swatch umbrella. Therefore non-Swatch companies have migrated to other movements.
Well I can tell you that Amazon is selling the 2951.41.10.1700 version for $140 more than MD is. Still I'm guessing if one is in the market for seven-hundred dollar dress watch, other options would take president.
The Sellita caliber is a copy, verging on forgery, of the ETA caliber. 699 is expensive for a watch like this though, that should be the price before dismount rather than after.
You think I can find one of those on eBay? Steinhart used screws on this bracelet and I put locktite on them I tinker with watches myself swap out movements mods etc quite a bit of tools
ED61EBay is not a good place to sell, but it is a good place to browse.
You shouldn't be putting Loctite on those screws, but if you do, use 222MS. If you have tools, use a torque driver instead. Swapping a movement and dismantling a movement are different things, every wheel should be oiled.
