If its not an Omega OEM part, then its just a parts watch, and resale would be very low. Omega heavily modifies the ETA eubaches they acquire for their watches. An off the shelf, stock ETA is not an Omega Movement. There are also varying grades of ETA movements, so an unmodified 2824 is not the quality of a 2892.
