Has anyone ever gotten any confirmation of the fact that the gold movements are Asian?  I have the gold movements in both my Marine Diver (labeled Swiss Mov't) and my 9937 (labeled Swiss on the dial, i.e. Swiss Made).  :?

 

N/M, I posted this before I read all of Chris' replies.  Nice work, Chris!  You wanna tear apart and refurb my 9937?  I'll pay...
