ETA stopped supplying unfinished movements to non-Swatch Group companies, they still sell completed movements. "3rd party" companies like Steinhart still buy and use them, it just means more work if they want to put out special editions with highly decorated and/or unique metal finishes in the movements as the movement has to be disassembled and refinished.
