·No one is disputing that the 1108 is basically a 2892 at heart but I think you are ignoring the bespoke finishing and serial number stamping. Personally I think $300 (for a base 2892) is pretty steep vs what such a movement would have been 3-5 years ago and you would knock that value and more off your Dynamic if you did drop in a generic ETA. Hey maybe I'm being hypocritical. I wore my D3 for about 10 years before it was serviced, but back when I got mine it was a £300/$400 watch so there was little to lose, now they are $1000 so keeping it healthy it matters more. I still have mine.
