While reading articles on watches, I often come across the terms ‘movement’, ‘ebauche’, and ‘caliber’? Is there any difference between these terms?
An ebauche refers to a "raw" or incomplete watch movement, with the main structural parts, including the plates and bridges and sometimes the wheel train parts and other moving parts.
A caliber refers to a series of the same-design movements.
