Dubois Depraz, Modular Chronographs & Modular Movements: Are they any good?

Описание к видео Dubois Depraz, Modular Chronographs & Modular Movements: Are they any good?

ETA & Sellita are the biggest names in movement manufacturing, but there's another name that dominates the industry - Dubois Depraz. Specifically, Dubois Depraz are the kings of movement modules - making components for Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille & IWC just to name a few. We've talked about in house movements, we've talked about popular outsourced movements such as the ETA2892 or the Valjoux 7750, but what about the gray area in between? What about modular movements that are half in-house movement, half outsourced?

Today I'll talk about what a modular movement is, what the advantages & disadvantages to a modular movement are, and I'll be using the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore (Manufacture Calibre 3126/3840 with a Dubois Depraz chronograph module) and the Ulysse Nardin Marine Diver (ETA 2892-A2 with an in-house Power Reserve module to make the UN-26) as examples of the pros & cons of movement modules & modular chronographs.

What do you think of modular movements for watches? Do you prefer them vs. a fully in-house or a third party movement?would the cost savings be enough for you to buy one over an integrated chronograph? Let me know what you think in the comments section.
