Sellita

Sellita's flagship automatic movement and the most widely used Swiss automatic caliber in production today, having filled the supply gap created by ETA's restrictions on third-party sales. A functional clone of the ETA 2824-2, it is dimensionally identical and shares the same parts compatibility. Available in multiple grades from Standard to Top, the SW200-1 powers watches from dozens of Swiss and international brands.

02The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely report terrific build quality and a feel similar to the 1960s original, with some appreciating its reasonable lug-to-lug and better-than-expected appearance in person. The compact 39mm case is praised for its wearability, especially on smaller wrists, and offers impressive 1,000m water resistance. However, the Soprod P024 movement's 38-hour power reserve is a point of criticism, as is a bezel that can be difficult to grip and weak lume. Some owners find the watch wears on the smaller side, and the date complication is seen by one owner as detracting from the design. The "Pacman" variant is noted as polarizing, with one owner questioning their purchase, while the "Ghost Purple" variant's 30 and 45 numerals are described as having a rushed aesthetic. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Nivada Grenchen Depthmaster highly for its faithful reissue, impressive water resistance, and comfortable wearability at a competitive price.
