Never say "always".
The "cloning" factories have adressed the lower crown position that would indicate the use of an eta or sw movement several years ago.
And cases that will employ both the eta/sellita and genuine 31XX movements have been circulating in the markets for at least 5 years that I know of.
As has been mentioned ( and yes I realize this is a very old thread and thought I might "update" it a bit) the only way to be SURE is to crack it open and have a look. And even then you need to "really" know what you're looking at as the cloning of the 28,800 vph, 31XX movement has come a "long" way.
