In many forums and even some YouTube watch channel, reference is made to problems very often with power reserve and winding (clones and Gen).
Perhaps these are movements that require overhauling/oiling
It is ETA, they have same QC for all movements. I worked on lot of those movements thats why I asked. So you cant give me a special link or something to proof? Then its just another anonymous rumor in a forum;)

For the others: sw300/2829 are top movements. Even the asia clones

Of course I take your word for it, I myself had problems with a 2892 (clone) of a Mark XVIII.

The sources are forums and YouTube, I think it is important to differentiate between a "bad movement" and a movement that can give problems. The power reserve issue has been discussed in many Spanish forums, I think you will agree with me that it is not the strong point of the 2892.

They really have no excuse to mess up the screws, the bezel screws on the IXDAO version were already perfect, now I am not sure if I want to get this

No, it isn't. Look at the chamfer of the bezel and the screws. This one is far better than the GH.

This rep also requires a first link mod like all the PP reps
This rep is like a mix of PP, AP & IWC all in 1 😂

Sad to say but I won't hold my breath for an accurate rep of this watch.
I had high hopes for the previous now discontinued Ingy and I am still waiting. :D

If they don't boter to rep it properly they could simply not rep it at all.

From what i See this a Rep with some minor flaws, Date Window Position seems wrong or is it Just the Long 3 o clock Marker, bezel screws have no bevel Like the Gen, dial Print is tad too bold.
Regarding the good build quality that v7f produces with with Mk series, i am hopefull we gonna get a very nice Rep
