Like what probably happened when you suggested the luminor going from 517 to 516 to 514… probably not only a typo.
I already ammended the original post giving your reference as a movement specialist…

...what are we talking about?
As KpOy says, it's not a 618 point.
The 6** series is different from the 5** series, I'm sure you'll agree!
And now that that's settled, everyone can take a deep breath...
So GLWS

514, 516, 517 bridge design are same as your movement from Luminor.
Please forgive me about mention of 616 in my post. I can repeat, all my comments are for your "618"
And do not replace anything in your sale post. Leave it as it was

Bridge design is the same as Rolex cal. 514 (eaton)
Compare mine to it below and forget the 517, 516 and 514 (all you pretended mine to be because they are not the same thing.
I already changed my sale post since i do not want to mislead and with typos or not you are so sure of what you want to name it that i credited you as a specialist. Hats off.
Other reason is that you are in HF for longer than me so credited is deserved.
I am a forum member since 2004 (rwc, rwg) but here it is a meaningless fact so…
Thank you for pointing out but it does noe efface the logo and caliber from under the balance wheel or its seven jewels.
We can call it other things but not what you pretend to call 517, 516, or whatever you pretend to lookalike… because they don’t even look like.
Thank you again, but look at the pics below:
1-Mine:
C390A7D0-CA3C-4F19-B283-DE30C10435D6.jpeg
2-a “transitional” Rolex 514 Eaton (same “architecture”, bridges, jewels, etc…)

You can end up comparing to your references.
Have a good evening
