Not sure when, but considering ETA has basically stopped selling movements to companies outside of the Swatch Group, not at all surprised.

It’s what they’re using in the Royal and other lower priced watches that are not using in house movement.

Swatch no longer provides ETA movements and parts outside the swatch group with some exceptions.

bb41 has been tudor movement for awhile? I think that is the biggest knock against it, it is a bit thicker than the eta version iirc.

I’m talking about the Tudor that Rolex copied to get the OP41

You're right sir. Wasn't aware of that reference. I was under the impression the old Black Bays which measured 41 mm were now called the BB41.
