hi bros, what's the difference between these 2 movements fc-310 vs eta 2824-2?

currently considering Frederique Constant FC-310M3P6 and Ball BALL fireman series RACER NM2088C-SJ-WHBE.

any idea which AD can give higher than 25% discount?

value for money.. maybe FC. 2yrs back I got a FC gold for my parents and its at 80% off, but I got it thru grey.
discount are very much control in AD. FC not as popular as Ball should be able to get good discount

there are other independent brands that uses same movement and more value for money
eg

guys just wanna share my experience purchasing with Orient & shipito.. a very unpleasant one i may say..

- initially the watch purchase after discount was 301 USD
- as Orient does not accept direct international purchase the only way is to go through shipito as per Orients web site info
- after the 8.50usd deposit for new account, this fee that fee bla bla..
- total cost for a 301 USD watch came up to 128 USD
- total 429 USD

that's like hell RM400 for nothing... shishhh

how about this Bonia Teroso?
RM1199 but after 20% discount the price is only around RM9xx.
Saw it at Tip Top Time last week. I was seduced by its first look beauty. (seriously the design look alike the honour watch brand- B&R)
plan to buy at Hong Kong since buying watch there is free-duty. But is this worth to buy?
I ask sale girl for the origin of Bonia watch. She states that the design is performed in Paris while the production is in Japan.
One year international warranty.
