wait a minute! how is this possible? that must be a modded watch right? 21600 doesn't come from the factories

Its a 3120 movement in there.

Nice review! Looks gorgeous!

reppin @BIONONE

Is it 3120 movement? I dont think so.

look at the position of the gears - the 9015 with decoration got its balance wheel bridge on a different position and so the wheel next to the crown - no rep (just 2813 cheapies) got 21.600 bph...

In addition - i don't know where you got this picture from but it seems to be a gen mvmt IMHO

EDIT: I don't think that it is gen movement anymore haha now as we all know that it is a rep with 2824 - it is clear that it is not the 3120... The BPH number made me uncertain

nine maybe you can tell me what you wanted to show us with this picture and where you got it from. I cannot imagine it is a 3120 clone :D :D :D

Thanks nine for the photos and write up. I like the hands on this iteration. If it were not for the sloppy lume fills on the XF timing ring, I might throw away my gen FC Diver timing ring. And the timegraph display will always be an urban myth, I suppose, LOL.

Here is another picture, and waiting for TD reply.

now things clear up... I think as it is a A2824 movement with decoration on top (so not the same decoration like on the 9015) it is in fact a totally wrong bph number.... what explains the inaccuracy of +30s/d

Or am I wrong? please bring in some light haha

I don't think that its a A2824, 2824 has balance wheel at the top. In this case, it does not seems like the balance wheel is at the top.

But which movement got it the gears on the right place like the gen?! I'm confused
