Re: Which part?

In Response To: Which part? ()

: OK we disagree. To me, watch is just a watch.
: To someone, watch is their religion, and
: they are willing to believe whatever
: hype/crap.

: It makes absolutely NO Sense that in-house is
: better than non in-house. What's the logic
: here? If you build something strictly within
: your own factory, you will end up with a
: better product than letting someone else do
: the job for you? In-house ONLY means
: exclusiveness, not necessarily better
: quality, Nothing else.

I think generaly In-house means exclusiveness, conceptually, but in Omegas case they used to manufacture their movements and they were in fact more robust that the current ETA movements. therefore one can conclude that if OMEGA began to make their own movements once again, they would be more robust that the current ETA based calibers.
