  1. Sorry to burst your bubble...but this is not really a very good rep... that movement is a very cheap chinese one, commonly found in lower-end reps. To buy a similar new movement will cost you appr. 12 $ with a stem. http://cousinsuk.com/default.aspx?disp=pro...roductid=462411 - Ofrei in the US also carries something like this.

    Having said that - to get a tube, crown and stem for this - apparently "cheap" rep, and then have all that installed by a pro (which you say you're not) is not really worth the effort, since this level reps are available for 60 to 90$ new. Have a look at the "links" section, check out what the dealers here on the board are offering - get a new one.

    You may be right if your opinion is based on the movement but the appearance is great.The watch kept great time.I have a friend who can do the repairs but i maybe ill just get a new one.

    Thanks

  2. Hey guys.Well long story short i broke the case tube on my rep sub.I had a friend (jeweler) to epoxy it and all was well for a few days until i hit my wrist against a door casing and the crown is now gone.I was going to try and get a stem,tube and crown but im not sure what size or any of those details,or if the piece of tube will be successfully removed from the case.So i was considering just trying to find a case with stem and crown included but will just any stem work with my movement?As of right now im not sure what movement this is maybe someone can identify it.This sub is a very good rep and i bought it cheap and have really enjoyed wearing so i would really like to fix.Im very new to this stuff guys so if i sound stupid its probably because i am when it comes to watches.But i sure know how to wear them!

    The case says ORIG R**EX DESIGN 11610 on 1 side and STAINLESS STEEL X41900 on the other.

    Suggestions:

    Thanks in advance JB

    here are pics of the movement and broken stem.there is no writing on the movement other than a + and - sign.

    If someone could identify the movement so that i might get the right stem,and i may need a new case if anyone has one they want to part with.Maybe im crazy for trying to fix but......LOL
