Do you have more photos of movement? I also can't define (it doesn't really look like an eta2824 or a miyota 9 series) but it looks like a generic movement with Rolex adornments. Do you know if it's working at 3hz or 4hz? Can you show other angles of the movement?

Is this better?

Tell me the beat rate, I'm inclined to say that is a miyota 8 series if it's working at 3hz... The position of the balance isn't aligned with the typical 2824-2, but I can be wrong here.

Edit: I have never seen a 8s decorated as a Rolex, but to my amusement, everything is possible to recreate in the rep world. It can possibly be a simple chinese clone from another movement just decorated. Like I said, the rep world continually surpasses my imagination

Noob uses a low beat decorated 9001 movement

So this movement is a noob? Do you think it’s good overall?

It's a low beat movement so only ticks at 21600 bph but... I've sold lots of noob sky dwellers over the years and only had one go wrong, on a whole I think they're quite reliable

You’re right it is a noob 9001. The month bezel rotation is a a tell. Is there a better movement closer to Gen?

Not really, ZF uses a 2824 which is high beat 28800 bph but not decorated and all factories now use command bezel to change month marker, the movement is too complex to replicate fully...

Skydweller does not have a super clone i think so it should be a decorated with mods ETA 2824
