1520 vs. 1530
While I know the 1530 carried a COSC certification in the 5512 I am looking for a bit more of information regarding these two movements. What are the differences, how tough are they, are they still tough to this day?
Are any of you aficionados out there able to point me in the direction of a good discussion or perhaps an article on this topic? I know, “tough” is a bit of a subjective word maybe reliable would be best suited for this topic. |

Some 5512s also had the 1520. The difference between COSC cert and no cert was whether the watch was tested. If so, it was a 5512. If not, it was a 5513.

So the 1530 is also different from the 1570 too I guess because I understood the APH of the 1570 movement to be 21,600? |
