The suffix denotes it is a revision - it may have been due to a change in movement (earlier versions may have been the ETA 2892 rather than the Sellita SW300).

Does revision mean repaired? The mechanism inside this watch is eta 2892-a2. I will buy this watch second hand, do you recommend it? Or should I buy one of the Sellita sw300s? It was purchased brand new from an authorized dealer in 2023, by the way

Revision means it differs in some way from the original version - commonly this is due to a different movement (from the factory, not a replacement) but can refer to any material part of the watch or even the design. They may have redesigned the lip around the caseback, for example, for a different machining process.

Personally, I'd go with either movement. The SW300 will be easier and cheaper to repair in future, but the 2892 has a bit more history.

Can I get people's thoughts on this please.


@flawless @MartinR @Jim Dollares
Just had an email from service dept.

'Thank you very much for your trust in our Maison.

We are pleased to confirm that the repair and all quality checks of your timepiece CAY111A have been completed.

I have to believe it's authentic or the majority of it is. It went in for a quartz partial service, strip down parts cleaned and replacement battery plus gaskets/seals. I would have hoped if anything was untoward it would be in the report.
My first dealing with Tag service dept. 🙄
