Those movements look GOOD Doc ! VERY nice to look at,
and some IMPRESSIVE specs too !..I like all of the different
versions of the movement also with those watches shown
by the way. It's great seeing the close ups as well, with all
the detail ! ..Thanks !

Funny, but I asked about the 9015 and if it were in any movements back a few months ago and no one could come up with a company or watch using it. Those in the pics, if you look closely, say Miyota. Cool and probably only a couple were made for their marketing purposes. Still can't find anything that actually uses those movements. Anyone know of any??

Wow..Now that's interesting !..I don't know of anything using the movement either !
I'll have to look around a little !

A number of micro brands are using this now.The reviews should be in about a month when some of the brands start delivering.
I'm interested in this movement,but waiting for Citizen to install it in a much less expensive watch than the ones they put them in
to date.Benarus mentioned that the movement cost was 3x the miyota 8215 which on a large order would put them at about
50.00 per movement,75.00 for retail.Since the 8215 has always been a good reliable low beat movement,theres no reason to thing
that the higher beat 9015 won't live up to its older cousin.I've always considered the miyota movement to be superior to the
seiko 7s26/36 movements.
