  1. Thank you Monito! What about the dial? Do you know where can I get a nicer dial that can fits the Eta 2836-2? Thanks again!
  2. Hello guys, this is my very first post. I came into the world of reps a couple of weeks ago thanks to a gift from my brother. I'm really happy about the watch, I didn't know much about replicas but it seems to be very well done. Then I discovered this forum and now I really wish to make this watch even better. I'm just writing to ask you guys if you think it's worth to mod this watch or if you think it's better to leave it as it is, maybe because I can find better replicas out there. Here's what I wish to do. 1 - I've never opened the caseback (at the moment I don't have the tool) so I don't know which movement the watch is using; all I can say is that the rotor is VERY noisy, and the sound seems to be actually quite "cheap". Moreover, the watch "runs" a little bit, and it's about 20/25 seconds faster every day. So this lead me to decide to change the movement and maybe buy a quite good one, an ETA maybe. I want to use this watch every day, so I'm looking for something reliable. 2 - Maybe the pictures are not very clear, but the dial is not very well done. It seems that the overall quality of the watch is superior than the quality of the dial. It's very "glossy" and you can see that somehow it gets a little bit "convex" below the indicators. In addiction there's no lume at all. By the way the case, the bezel and the bracelet seems to be very close to the original. I just shot a few pictures, next days I'll shot some more of the details. I have to say I have no experience in opening watches and work with them, so I don't know how hard it might be to change the dial and the movement. I'm open to any suggestions, thanks a lot for your answers. r.
