Thank You @ KBH, i appreciate the help

Thank you @ Slickdick , I appreciate the help

I also forgot , Did you use the Mr. Stilty conversion ring .. for your 160xx/3035 ..2836-2 frankens ? Thank you

Thanks .. so, looks like best way is to go with 2836-2 in a 160xx/3035 case ...unless youe skilled at replacing the canon pinion

Yes from what i have been reading the 2824-2 needs a taller canon pinion ....the 2836-2 is a bit higher "standard" not sure you can use a 2836-2 in a 162xx case, however you can in a 160xx case

If I use Mr. Stilty conversion ring ... on a 2836-2 16014/3035 ... the cannon pinion standard is 2.70mm on a 2836-2 is this adequate to clear the hour indices on the dial ... Thank you for your time

hello, anyway i had a project that was put on hold ... 2836-2 eta movement in a 16014/3035 case ... There were some post , that someone was engineering a a datewheel overlay .. that was thinner..with correct font ... did this ever happen ? any help would be nice .. Thank you for your time

hhhaa hhaa

Roling on ebay ? Is this a store or seller ...pardon I am not familiar with this Roling ...Thank you

aahh yea ... that was my original plan ... however, after some consideration ...I thought a replica ..with the correct bezel would be sufficient .... but my dreams smashed ... .... back to plan "A" or plan "1" ...depending on whether or nor your alphabetical or numerical type person ... Thanks for taking time to respond

yes, thanks for your input as well ... never understood why they make the bezel so wide ... gives away the whole watch ...instantly ...anyway a shame because i really like the datejust watches .... o well ..thank you again

Yes, that's what I was thinking .... Thanks for your input

Hello , Anyway does anyone know if the bezel can be removed on a replica datejust , If so will a genuine bezel fit ...All of the replica bezel's seem to be improper size on the datejust... I know this is probably not enough information ..However, any knowledge on the subject would be greatly appreciated .. Thank you

Yes , the rolex 3035 movement is a bit over 6mm high ...as compared to the 4.6mm high 2824-2 .... so the case tube location on the original rolex case 16013 ... has to be around .60 mm higher than the stem location on the 2824 movement ...so, the movement needs to lifted that amount or close to...only way is to space the dial ...then you need a taller CP ..only way ... thats true ...Thank you

Thank you for the reply .... don't know where you find the time .. LOL

Nice job... .... is the taller cannon pinion with dial spacer ...so the hands fit ... or to raise the movement in the case for proper stem and case tube alignment ?

wow . thats a beauty ...maybe i need one of those too

Hey there ...Thank you very much ! I appreciate your help

Hello , Anyway can someone tell me who/where Clarks is ? Is this a store on ebay , seller on ebay ... How would I find Clarks ?... Thank you for your time

I see ... well thank you both for your great knowledge ... I do have both movements available ... again I appreciate the help

great photo's .. I am working on a gen rolex case 16013 ... with ETA 2824 movement .... How did you attach the dial ? Is it original dial ( rolex) ? Thank you

Greetings to everyone ....glad to find the sight again ... your friend in USA
