IMHO the certified movement is not worth it. Stowa works on each individual movement anyway to make sure it is running superbly. All the certification does is give you a piece of paper that says your watch is accurate and that even has to be renewed every few years. It’s basically just a licensing fee for that. The movement is no different in a COSC than any other of the watches.
