Looking for some help in understanding if my amplitude on this watch is a cause for concern. My understanding that the reading (328°) is outside of the recommended range for most replicas, but at the same time I've read that some swiss movements are supposed to run at higher than usual amplitudes. Since this watch has a clone of the swiss cartier caliber is my reading okay or is there anything I should be worried with this amplitude reading?

Thank you

If its an Asian let's say ETA 2892, it's all good. And it's also within specification if fully winded. I would be more worried, that the timegrapher values look extremely perfect 😄

Thanks. It is from Lucy and after she sent it to her watchmaker to adjust the movement. It is not an Asian ETA as far as I know, it is a clone of the Cartier's in-house 076 caliber

So it's a clone of an ETA 2671, made by Seagull or Dandong 😉

I wouldn’t worry too much about the amplitude unless it’s causing other issues like timekeeping problems. A slightly higher amplitude can sometimes be normal, especially with certain movements, but if you’re noticing any erratic behavior like the watch running fast or slow, it might be worth getting it checked.
