: what other non omega whatch uses this
: movement ?
No non-Omega watch uses the same movement. Others may use the base ETA movement, but Omega makes exclusive modificaions to it for their use, which obviously no company besides Omega will have.
But it is really a waste to focus much on the details of the movement. Unless you are a watchmaker yourself, you--like 99.99% of luxury watch buyers--will have no real understanding os what the answers really mean anyway. So most people get lost in a maze of comparing meaninglessly trivial details because they lack any true perspective as to what technical spec differences are even discernable in real life.
In truth, all you really need to know is that ALL luxury quartz watch movements used by brands like Omega are far superior to the simple task of telling time accurately. So there is no point in wasting your time trying to find some basis of differentiation between them in choosing which watch to buy.
At the moment, the only luxury quartz movements that are significantly different from the pack are the Breitling SuperQuartz. You might want to look into them a little more to see if their advanctages appeal to you over the conventional quartz technology used by everyone else.
