Replacement and service guidance

Do not treat E61.041 or another ETA reference as an automatic drop-in replacement. Compare movement diameter, thickness, stem position, hand sizes, dial feet, battery height and case clearance. The battery discrepancy between the ETA-family reference and the current Gilded Hour L160.2 listing must be resolved from the watch itself.
