I've got two watches with ETA movements. Much like Rolex, ETA has been making and refining many of their movements for a long time. I'm confident that they can match the quality of many other manufacture movements.

My biggest concern is that I don't know what grade of movement is in my ETA-movement watches. ETA makes several grades of some of their more common movements. In the case of some of the higher grade watches, the watch maker has upgraded the ETA movement.

Because I bought ETA-movement watches from decent watch companies, I feel secure but don't actually know what I've got. Rolex is always Rolex, and that's pretty comforting.
