But why? Is it part reduction? Is it ease of service? Is it size vs robustness of movements?Although for me, the most memorable quote came after a few beers with a different watchmaker:
"You'd have to have a mental defect to not see how much better a Rolex movement is than ETA once you've actually worked on them."
As a newb, I'd like more information. Unfortunately for me, I rarely find an opportunity to speak with a watchmaker (I think it's happened once at a Nomos event), so I'm genuinely curious. A quote from a conversation you had doesn't really satiate my curiosity. FWIW I've mostly operated with the bias that the quote is true, but outside of reading up on the 4130, I'm not sure I've provided myself with any tangible evidence; just anecdotes from posters on forums. I'd like to learn more.
