What kind of movement did George put in this particular piece?

its a miyota chrono quartz

Really?? Hummmm...... I love the designs and the quality, but the movements I don't know about. That is my big hang up with NFW. Don't get me wrong I think George makes great watches and he sounds like a great guy, but he needs to get into the Swiss movements for the asking price he wants on his timepieces. If he made the Viperfish or the AP with a ETA 2824-2 or a Valjoux 7750 I would buy one from him for a very hefty price.

i heard him comment once about eta - i dont think he's gonna go swiss -i'll just leave it at that

i dont have a problem with the miyota's and as for cost -since he's not putting out alot of volume you gotta understand the design's and cost of production are probably the reason's behind the cost

i think he makes up for it in QC & CS -excuse me -REAL QC & CS not INVISIBLE QC & CS

I hear you there and you have a valid point. I just need to get over my hang-up with movements I guess. I'm sure I will break down and buy the Viperfish with the Miyota automatic movement.

1-you get a strap & a bracelet
2- you get an auto choice
3 - you get NFW QC & CS

Very true. Plus you are dealing with a class act guy unlike the other so called company.

its a shame - i think EL is a good guy -just a little greedy maybe -but hey -we all have families - i dont blame him in making money -and he has made some smart business choices -ingenious designs, great pricing, alot of styles and sizes and price points for everyone

they just fell behind in QC & CS -maybe they are working on this
hopefully they are

until then -i'm out
