Just wondering and sorry if I have missed the answer elsewhere but which movement powers the FLE - Selitta or ETA?

It is stated as either/or. I guess we have Sellita, but I'm not opening mine to check....:)

Yes I'm guessing Selitta, I don't mind either way but would have liked to know but don't want to open my back either!

then I think it is fair to say that they are all SW200-1s. Pretending to be a watch geek I think it is important to be able to tell people what powers it! :D Will say it seems very accurate so far.

I am far from being an expert on these matters.....

but my FLE is keeping pretty perfect time so far. On the wrist for a week so far.
If it is a Sellita, keep 'em coming.

Only if a current owner decides to return in which case there is a waiting list, or if they sell here or on eBay etc. sorry.

Something to keep in mind for next time. Thanks guys.

Mine is definitely a Sellita - if you manually wind it, the Sellita SW200 is much stiffer than the ETA.

Bit disappointed with the accuracy at first - it is housed next to my C9 2011 FLE which is the most accurate of my autos or manuals and the C60 FLE initially gained + 20-25 seconds a day but now seems more like + 5-7.
