Hello,
I have started learning to work on watches a week ago on an ST36. I have the technical datasheet for the ETA 6497 and I read everywhere that one is a clone of the other.
That surprises me a bit because the bridge structure is clearly completely different (one barrel bridge which does not cover the central wheel, one gear train bridge for the center, second and third wheel, one cock for the escapement.
So what makes it a clone? Is it the arrangement of the main plate and things like the keyless works?
Hi everyone, I'm excited to learn more about watch repair! I have started a small collection of vintage and modern watches and look forward to learning repair and maintenance. I appreciate all the experience the members bring to the forum. Best wishes.
