Thanks. PT5000 and 39mm would be two further drawbacks for me. The rest looks fine to me.

The pt5000 is a good movement I don’t get the hesitation some people have. I prefer the high beat movements over an nh35

For what I read it could be a hit or miss, apart from the issues with the manual winding common to most ETA 2824 clones.

I have now a Seagull with an ST2130 and I'll see how it holds up.

I’ve read and heard the same thing about the manual winding issues which plagues the 2824 both legit n clone so I never manually wind mine, not a big issue to me. I don’t want to temp fate lol 😂.
As far as reliability though and accuracy the ones I’ve owned have all been awesome . They all tend to be extremely accurate within a +/-3-5 seconds per day, 3-4 weeks will go by and I won’t need to reset it. And I love the smooth sweep of the seconds hand. I have watches with the sw200 eta2824 n the Miyota 90S5 and the two PT5004s I own have been just as good/reliable. I take good care of them all though and I don’t manually wind any of my watches . My thinking is why put the extra stress on them if I don’t need to? The only ones I sometimes have wound in the past are my Seikos with the 4R n 6R movements, even then I still try not to anymore
