I'd like a manual wind 8 beat movement

[VWatchie]

I must confess, I prefer manual wind movements but it would seem to me that these most of the time are "low beaters". I'd like to find a not too expensive 8 beat manual wind movement, preferably Swiss and preferably without any complications (not a requirement though).  Any suggestions?

Have a look at the ETA 2801-2/Sellita SW210-1, if you are looking for something new that is. The Sellita is the off patent clone of the ETA

Thanks, JBerry! What I'd really like would be to find a used inexpensive manual wind high beater (preferably 8 beats) on eBay, Etsy, etc. to service/repair.

Still not to your specifications, but the Seagull ST2130 (ETA clone) is a reasonable inexpensive 28.800 bph, be it an automatic. Perhaps Seagull has more 28.800 bph, but without date & hand-wound? Not sure, but I think it's worth to check Seagull out......

  i collected several vintage, auto- wind, wrist watches that were also windable !  i like that.   the later "automatics" required a bench winder if not worn.    vin
