Hey gang! What I have here are pics of the movements from two different 33mm Cartier Ballon Bleu watches. One is from AF, which has always been described as a Swiss movement, and one from 3KF, which is always described as a clone movement.

The AF model with the "Swiss" movement was always priced ~$100+ more than the 3KF. But I suspect that the AF movement is also a clone and not much different than the 3KF. What do you think? Is there really any difference between these two? Both are already mine, so it's not about making a buying decision. At this point I'm just curious!
