Or not!

I was thinking of popping an auto movement in a fat cased CWC G10 to replace the ESA quartz that was in there, 2824/36 is a straight swap but I see a 2824 is £80 +VAT at Cousins!

When did they get so bloody expensive, seems like last time I looked you could get a 2801 for £20 and a 2892 was about £90

Anyone have a cheaper source for a 2824?

And does anybody know the correct size crystal for a CWC G10? 31.6 or 31.7mm?
