: I think you referenced the Omega model number
: 2594.52, which is the black faced Seamaster
: Chrono with the 3301 movement. The 3301
: movement is actually a F. Piguet chronograph
: movement, not an ETA movement. That's why
: watches containing it cost more than those
: with modified ETA movements (look at the
: price difference between this model and the
: Bond SMP chronograph with its ETA-based
: movement).
: There have been many documented problems with
: the 33xx series movements on timezone.com,
: so I'd check there for more information. I
: brought this up on the watchuseek forum and
: was attacked by one of the so-called
: "moderators" for "daring to
: compare a prestigious Piguet movement to an
: Omega ETA co-axial". He told me my post
: was "non-serious" and that I
: needed a lesson in horology. Thankfully the
: people on this forum aren't arrogant
: "movement snobs", so I can mention
: the 33xx series problems without being
: personally attacked by a rude moderator.
: Oh, needless to say, I don't visit
: watchuseek.com anymore.
you are right, the french moderator is a jerk.he is really stuck on himself.
