Movement bestiary
Every caliber in the GrailWatch catalog, classified into one of four tiers (plus the honest “unclassified” bucket). The tier is a small additive lift to the Reliability rating — never an overrule. Owner-verified data still dominates.
Manufacture (in-house)
Brand-designed, brand-produced. Service is brand-direct, expensive, and long. The market rewards these meaningfully.
