Rather like the B18 and B20 engines that powered the rally-winning Volvo Amazons, it’s an over-engineered, under-stressed power plant that’s easy to work on and simple to fix and with a ready supply of spares. And it’ll run happily for years, often swallowing lack of maintenance, abuse and neglect with a smile. So why are people so rude about ETA movements? To be fair, the irritation around 2824-powered timepieces isn’t usually about the quality of the engine itself; it’s about the price. A single ETA 2824-2 movement will set a watchmaker back around £225 (about $290), assuming they buy just one. And that same movement will pop up anywhere from “budget” watches to some serious, top-end timepieces with posh names on the dial—and prices to match. It can be a little hard to swallow when a £5,000 watch is apparently carrying the same movement as your £350 beater. But explaining why is a story for another day.
