>Id like the sauce for your escapement claims
My eyes, and my knowledge of escapements. Pic related is the escapement of the L888 movement, which is the same escapement as the L619/888 (you can google and see the matching beat rate and power reserve, both of which differ from the standard 2892-A2).

The escapement in that picture is a Powermatic-80 style escapement. It has the exact same arrangement of two eccentric weights on a balance wheel that therefore must be laser cut at the factory to set the balance and timing rate of the movement. That is not what the escapement of a traditional 2892-A2 looks like. That would be a regulated balance wheel with an Etachron micro-regulator screw.

>because you didnt even know the hamilton had a 2824 which you could have just googled
Not the same anon as the one who claimed that.

Do you see how the balance wheel on the L888 only had a stud and two eccentric weights on the balance wheel, and how there is no regulator arm? That is the same balance wheel design as the Powermatic 80, and that type of balance wheel design will not work correctly unless it is balanced at the factory by selectively removing weight from the balance wheel, which The Swatch Group does using a laser.

The L619/888 is the same as the L888, it was just easier to find a good pic or the L888.2 version.
