    Mediocre
    I have always liked Ebels. I bought my Wave chrono 9126F41 back in 2012. My research on the brand led me to the in-house Cal 137 movement (and its derivative calibres 139, 240 , 245 and 288) and I began seeking one out long before I joined WUS or even heard of Rick Denney! But it was Rick and Rod who guided me to the discounted prices at MCS which enEbeled my collection of this brand.

    You Brits are so demanding!

    The first video was an iPhone accident. But now I know I can upload them, here is a better one showing the movement in action
