That's intersting because my experience has been the total opposite of yours. This means that there's no real quality control in both the movements 🙂 Just kidding... Maybe, all this boils down to how robust the crown action is.

Oh, I love this brand. Superb build quality. Only let down by the Sellita movement. I prefer ETA, any time.

Thank you! Right now, I'm not looking at luxury watches. Looking for something from brands like Hamilton, Citizen (series 8), Hanhart, Sinn, Junghans and Nomos. Thanks for your suggestions. Will look them up. 

Anything on the import duties from Jomashop?
