ETA 2824 compatible | SW200 Swiss Movement DIY Watch Kit - Master Aviator
Warning: we strongly do not recommend assembling this as your first DIY watch. Please pay special attention to stem/crown removal instructions; failing to follow them may result in a damaged movement.
After months (or even years) of requests, we present our very first Swiss mechanical movement build-your-own watch kit.
This watch features a no-nonsense clean functional design, with ratios inspired by pilot watches. The lumed metal indices elevate the class of this watch while keeping the highly functional and legible design. This kit features a Swiss-made SW200 movement and is compatible with all movements with the ETA 2824 construction.
Distinguishing itself from our existing Japanese Miyota and Seiko NH34, 35 movements, the SW200-1 represents a significant upgrade, a modern iteration of the revered ETA 2824-2. Boasting 26 jewels, superior finishes, tighter tolerance, and a higher beat rate, it's the go-to choice for discerning watchmakers worldwide. Partnering with EONIQ, this Aviator timepiece seamlessly merges functionality and aesthetics.
However, be forewarned: this kit, while rewarding, presents a challenge to watchmaking beginners, slightly surpassing the complexity of Japanese mechanical movements. Please carefully follow our instructions as you attempt this build.
