ETA 2836-2 or Asian clone?

Looking for some educated opinions on the authenticity of this movement. Not the greatest pics but the best I can do with my phone

Everything is clean and looks brand new, engravings are sharp and precise. It appears to be very well made but I know the Chinese are getting good with cloning. I paid more than I should have for the watch due to the fact it was a supposed authentic Swiss eta movement

Thats a real ETA

Awesome man! Thanks!! That makes me feel better about dropping nearly $600 for a 2836 rep. It’s a Noob V9 and everything looks great but I was skeptical on the movement since I’ve heard how rarely they come with an actual eta.
