ETA 2824. Something odd/unusual about this movement.
I bought this 40mm Oris Big Crown pointer date from a UK dealer on EBay on friday, and it arrived this morning. In 3 hrs, it hasnt lost a second. It was described as mint. I'ts not, but not far off.
I have a bit of a problem with the movement. It was advertised as an ETA 2824, and it looks like one, but the regulator is a vernier screw, quite unlike any I've seen before. It's clearly marked 2824, otherwise I would suspect that it's a Sellita variant, which are ETA copies.
Pics attached. Has anyone else seen this sort of regulator on an ETA movement??

The case back from my Pro Pilot Date...I believe this is a Sellita movement though...

I think Oris offer a lot of watch for the money personally...I have no issue with the quality of the finishing or the timekeeping...
