I was amazed after reading the first post..>>>

That this was a 3 year old thread!!....And the Chinese "goniffs" are STILL selling "Gen Swiss" ETA's to unsuspecting noobs !!...
So nothing much has actually changed after all...In China AND Nigeria!!..

So if the "swiss movements" are nothing more than an asian clone and it's known on the forum then why do some dealers list the $50 upgrade option to "swiss" inside their sales thread?

Old habits die hard >>>

And even the "trusted dealers" in the far east retain a trace of their traditional sales techniques of "let the buyer beware"....That's why we have sites like this...To share our wariness!!

Because they embellish to make extra money?
