I own a 2530 and I’m very satisfied with their consistency through the entire development of the mainspring, alongside with the isochronism and accuracy.

Any alternative to the 2555 movement? I’m searching to replace it in a watch, with a more reliable and documented one.

I am suspecting the Oskar Emil Orbit which is a regulateur tourbillion is based on this movement as the back view is identical. The Orbit has second hand attached to the rotating balance, a central minute hand and a sub dial hour hand at 12.

The lift angle of Caliber 219a, 219 is 53 degrees. I’m sure, I read it thru. @CC
