Time will tell if the movement gives more stable performance, but one thing is for sure that if it is a version with the silicon balance spring and balance, it will be more stable in terms of timekeeping. I had always been leery of this technology from a fragility standpoint, but having now taken a silicon balance spring and stretched it far beyond the point where a Nivarox (or other metal spring) would deform severely, and having it snap right back to it's original shape, my concerns over these have been greatly diminished.
