Hi, I'm in for 2 thin silver ones for ETA 2846 and 2836 1665 watches. Thanks

Thanks a lot Freddy.

The movement is 1570. It looks like in good condition. I removed the automatic winding parts from the bridge plate and examined the gears. They all look OK. I put a bit of pressure on the driver gear and the watch starts running again. It seems the main spring is broken. I want to remove the stem from the movement. How do I release the stem? There is no push button as in ETA, but there is a small screw next to the stem. It may be the one. Does anyone have experience with removing the stem from rolex 1570 movement? I appreciate your helps on this.

Thanks all for good feedbacks and suggestions. I'll personally open it up and take a brief look at the watch first. Then go from there. I definitely think of The Zigmeister when it comes to movement services. Thanks

Wow I can't believe it's that high. I thought it's around $15K. I'll pick it up this weekend and will open it up for more pictures. Will see what needs to be done and replaced.

Hi, My brother just gave me this watch to check it out. It's from his father-in-law. It just stops running a few weeks ago. So it definitely needs movement overhaul. On top of it, it needs the crystal replacement as well. Does anyone have an extra superdome crystal for sale?

Thanks The Zigmeister. I just demag the watch yesterday and left it on the winder again overnight. Will time it again later today after work. It's an ETA movement BTW. A first quick look at the movement , it looks like new. Will examine the hairspring as well. Other option is sending it back to the dealer for service or replacement.

I just bought a new lady datejust watch for my sister. It runs about 30 minutes fast in 10 hours. So it's about 3 sec fast in 1 minute (60 sec.) Can it be regulated? What can cause the watch to run this fast? Thanks

What did you use to file the back of the insert so nice and clean? very nice looking watch. I like the pearl. It's so .... GOOD. Thanks

Yes. It was from Adam. It took me a while to get all the parts to complete the project. Initially, I plan for ETA2824 which is used in original Tudor. However, it does not fit the depth of the case. So ETA2836 fits perfectly. Other interesting point is that the OEM Tudor sapphire glass fits perfectly as well. And ... I just gave this watch to my brother-in-law. But I still have another case to build one for myself. The dial will be "vintage" blue this time.

I started this Tudor watch project from a $25 Tudor watch case. Added items: - Genuine Tudor dial - OEM sapphire crystal - Tudor watch bracelet - ETA 2836-2 movement (similar to original Tudor movement) - OEM Tudor hand set - OEM spring bar Enjoy!

Yeah, its' 100% CHISS ETA movement.

Guys, Leo is right. He told me earlier that the shop is diagonally across from KFC restaurant. And the KFC is 1C04-1C07, not 1D15 as reptec wrongly pointed out.

I don't see any X in the picture ?

Very very nice collection you have Enjoy

I bought from them as well and they're ... in trash can now

I have a new spare noobmariner case for sale if anyone is interested for their project.

I had the same experience. It's very very hard to remove such bezels. I managed to remove one and it's bent a bit. So my advise is not attempting to remove the new "perfect" (not) bezel.

Thanks guys. I'm in US. I'll pay for it + shipping if needed.

Hi, I'm looking for a second hand for my asia-mov LV submariner. Does anyone know where to get one? Ebay does not have hands for asian watch. Thanks for your helps.

Does anyone know where to get a good magnifying lens replacement? Is the Ofrei Lens sapphire and 2.5X? Thanks

Nice watch. But I'd stay away from the white dial due to its lack of lum dot (arrow shape) on dial. It's the most visible flaw of this watch.

Which MBW LV are you refering to? - Asian movement model: I doubt it's water resistant. 316 grade SS is questionable as well. - ETA movement one: Have the watch tested for water resistant ... before swimming. Just to be sure before you regret. Forget about 440 grade SS. It's non-existent for rep. Go for the best ETA MBW. It's one of the best ... but expect the least communication from Luckyyy after payment. Good lucks.

The date window is a bit small in rep. Nice watch.

Excellent timekeeping. Report back to us in 3 months how acuurate and reliable it is.
