he ETA 2824-2 is a legendary Swiss automatic watch movement renowned for its reliability and widespread use across brands. Introduced in the 1970s and refined since 1982, it powers countless timepieces with proven durability.
History
Born from ETA’s push for efficient mass production amid the quartz crisis, the 2824 evolved from the manual-wind ETA 2801 by adding an automatic module. It set industry standards for over 50 years, facing supply controversies in the 2010s before successors like the Powermatic 80 emerged.
