Product Description
THE CASE METAL – is Alloyed 903 Marine Bronze. This represents a change from the 954 Bronze. The higher tin content produces a slightly more of a copper luster and less brown. The 903 Bronze is the American counterpart to CuSn8 the alloy Panerai uses for it’s Bronze watches being with in 3% of its copper content. The 903 Bronze over time will take on a rich patina that will enhance the character of the case, just as the 954 Bronze did.
THE MOVEMENT – is an automatic (self-winding) ETA 2824-2 and the date is @4:00. It is Swiss, made with 25 jewels and Incabloc Novodiac shock protection. This movement is a workhorse and the movement of choice in many luxury watches selling at a much higher price point. The daily rate tolerance for the watch is +/- 12-15 seconds a day. While you may have a daily rate less than this, this tolerance is what ETA has established.
