Welcome to MWF, sk88.
That's a nice Victorinox watch you have in your hand.

I'm no expert in watch movements so I'm just sharing what little information I managed to get from the internet.
Technical specs of ETA 2878 can be found here: http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&&2uswk&ETA_2878
Some sources seem to think that this is a discontinued movement, but servicing and spare parts won't be an issue as apparently it is quite similar in construction to the existing calibers such as ETA 2836.

By the way the watch hack? Reason I'm asking is that, supposedly, there was a non-hacking version of the 2878.
