The Ronda caliber 505 is a 3-hander quartz movement with a date. Ronda markets this calibre as a repairable movement with a very powerful stepping motor.

Swiss Made VS Swiss Parts:

Unlike many other Ronda movements, there is no way to visually determine the country of origin by a quick glance of the color or jewel count. Both the Swiss Made and Swiss Parts versions are nickel plated (silver tone) with 1 jewel. To figure out which version is in your watch, you will have to look for the country of origin text on the movement itself.

Ronda 505 VS 505S:

There is a similar caliber 505S with the main difference being that the seconds on the 505S is displayed as a disc. If you have seen an example of this, please comment below.
