The only thing that matters is how much improvement you want over the base model movement. ETA will do just about anything you can imagine as far as brand name parts upgrades and decoration.
Worrying about where the parts might come from is just a waste of space on the forums. It’s an interesting factoid but you won’t be wearing a watch at all if you think you can buy one that’s 100% Swiss.

I thought that there were 3 versions of the 2824-2

1) nickle plated with Swiss and China parts assembled in Switzerland

2) gold plated all Swiss parts and assembly

3) platinum plated all Swiss parts and assembly

all marked the with hallmark, lot # and all of that, I could be wrong though, of course there are lots of other options from ETA but those are the ones being discussed.
