Surely the factories can't get their hands on genuine Swiss ETA6497-2 movements can they?

I saw the pic 6497-1 I'm sure they can get those 100-200. 6497-2 is around 450-500. Maybe they are just using a 6497-1 mainplate with asian 6497-2 parts

They are using refurbished Swiss part that’s all.
Stick with Asian.

Finishing is even worse then Asian 6497, the swiss 6497-1 mainplate have no perlage finish, not worth the extra money, Use the money for a good service and the A6497 will last a very long time i have some pretty old A6497 movements still running very accurate.

Yeah I missed that, the mainplate is ETA6497-1.

Are there any other parts of the ETA6497-1 that would be used, or would the remainder of the movement likely be Asian 6497-2 parts?

Intime's website says the movement is 21600vph, so not a complete ETA6497-1 movement.
If its only the baseplate that has been changed that seems pointless, if anything a downgrade given the lack of decoration.
