Need help with movement verification

[COLDI]

I have this 111h. Just wondering the movement in it. Any help would be great. I think it is Swiss but want a few other opinions...

to bad the balance wheel is moving....

i would guess...in best case....SWINESE

 

[horologie_unitas]

the base could be gen ETA....with chinese bridges.

but anyhow......it is a very reliable, uncomplicated movement. so....no worries.

i have a 100% chinese shitty 6497 running in germany on daily basis.....no problems.....and keeps great time.

That's a so-called 'Swiss' Unitas 6497 by the looks of it (meaning that bits of it are Swiss and other bits such as the bridges are Chinese).

Swiss or Asian, it's a great movement and one of the most reliable you'll ever own. I have a few of 'em now (some Swiss, some Asian, some in reps, one in a gen) and they never put a foot wrong.

Hey all,

What are some of the obvious tells that this is a 6497 Chinese or Swiss? Care to edu-ma-cate?

Cheers!
