As far as Soprod is concerned, it makes mainly modules for other companies or doing movement decoration. So it depends on which movement you are referring to. Most if not all mechanical movements that you see on the market now has the appearance of sweeping second hand.

I assume you're talking about DSN's new watches with the ETA2892-2 movements that have the SOPROD power reserve module. I believe these movements beat at the normal rate for a 2892-2, so it will give the appearance of a sweeping hand - just like Taka said.

I'm wearing my spanking new 027A DSN rep right now. The sweep is quite smooth.

Pics and review to follow. Did I mention that it only took 3 days to get from Hong Kong to the US?!?!?!?!?! Lightning fast, IMO.

the movement in the 027/028 is great...the best I have (and IMO the best one that can be found in replica watches)...the movement, just as the other guys told you is super smooth and the second hand is sweeping..

If you are thinking about getting the watch from DSN - I say, go for it....I paid today from some spare parts from DSN for the "old school" PAM027 & PAM028
