This is a reasonable deal compared to the ETA 649x-2. Has anyone tried this yet?
Pros….
1) Swiss made
2) high beat variant
3) new
4) price compared to ETA
Cons
1) haven’t found the 6497 version yet
2) price compared to Chinese clones

Nice find! I believe it's a twin of 6498, different brand is just a marketing.
6497 would be much more interesting, of course.

The description says that they produce it themselves to have an ETA alternative available, because ETA is no longer selling to anyone outside SWATCH group.
Cousins is suing them already for quite some time for this behaviour.
