They went through all the process to give it a free sprung balance, nice engraving and make it out of nice materials. Only to not have the correct escapement jewel, again.
And it is said the pinions are not gen spec.

I see… did not seen the issue with escapement jewel and the pinions . Good catch. Looks like always 85% good but the rest is missing, especially for the price I would not expect to have such small issues.

Is it just me or is the font size smaller on the movement? I think its from the older generation of 5712 not the newer?

I am surprised not many people wanna talk about it?
I really hope they can super clone 324 movement then I can swap the incoming 3kf 5176a with mods.

FINALLY they get the damn escape jewel correct! Finish is still not close to what you would see on the gen, but I'd love to get my hands on one to give regulating it a try.

Would love to see a SBS comparison between this and gen. Any chance @CTime ?

These all look great but reliability is my biggest concern and if the free sprung can be regulated easily... wonder what micro stella tool is necessaryk

It still doesn't look gen but it's getting closer.
