ETA 7750 is a chronograph movement from ETA.
SW260 is a self winding small second movement from Sellita.

No difference - Selitta makes ETA clones.

Both are dependable workhorses. In terms of pricing of movement, ETA was more expensive. Having said that, I have had watches from brands like Oris that uses Selitta, with no problems whatoever. There are 3 grades of ETA movement eg Tudor and Omega used to use the top-grade (prior to using in-house movements), Tag Heuer and Ball used the medium-grade, and micro-brands use the basic, unmodified entry-grade (some like Steinhart provides value-for-monies by giving the medium-grade ETA). Both ETA and Selitta are good movements, in fact I dare say that Miyota is just as good, other than the snob factor.

Both are equally good.

IMHO, Seillita is better in terms of parts availability. ETA is limiting parts availability to its customers only now, therefore independent watchmakers cannot get ETA parts anymore soon.

On factory issue yes, but there are certain manufacturers which finishes the movements before assembling into their watches.
