FAQs

1. Is this a genuine Seagull movement or a counterfeit?

This is a genuine Seagull movement, officially manufactured by the Tianjin Seagull Watch Group. It is a licensed clone based on the ETA 2836-2 design, not a counterfeit.

2. Is the ST2146 compatible with parts made for ETA 2836-2?

Yes, due to its 1:1 structural design, the ST2146 is interchangeable with ETA 2836-2 in terms of dimensions, hand sizes, dial feet positions, and stem height, allowing direct parts compatibility.

3. How does its quality compare to the Swiss ETA 2836-2?

The ST2146 offers excellent value for the price but has lower finishing quality and slightly less strict QC than the Swiss original. It remains a reliable and practical choice for many applications with proper maintenance.
