That one may well be not even made of steel (it can be brass plated). When you will get your 1st high end rep believe me you will feel such a difference that it will be amazing

To me it is worth. The 2813 movements feel "cheap" to me when operating it with the crown. Also they are 21600 beats per hour. The Eta (and Asian eta clones) beats at 28800 BPH, which is the same as gen Rolex movement. See the difference in the second hand sweep here:

If you want a very good ceramic bezel sub just get the V6S from Noob factory (and get it from one of our trusted dealer, NEVER from a random site you find with Google) with Asian 2836 movement. Also the older V5 or V6 (not s) are great. If you prefer the older not ceramic version, the best around are thr Thomas Caddell (TC) realizations. Differences between ceramic (right one) and non ceramic (left one) bezel:

Best option unless you go for a real new (not the crappy Swiss BP factory puts in their reps) Swiss one. It is the Chinese clone of a Swiss Eta movement. It even accepts gen ETA spare parts.

Happy labor day!

Sorry, Asian 2836. Not 2834.
-
Asian 2834 (eventually Asian 2824)

I think it will be more proficient to get a new one. SWF ones (and ZF, but for this model SWF are better) now use a new movement which has jeweled sec@6 so no more graphite and stuttering hand.

Trusty on Rwg.bz is asking for comments on these new dials they are going to be produced. Stay tuned! -
[part 1+2 and final thought] full tear down IWC A5001
GenTLe replied to Rolexman's topic in The IWC Area
Buu the watch (IWC 5001 or 5007 with real power reserve from ZF) and you will have one. -
Coff coff... 64... Coff..

Just in case, be informed that Toro has these, Noob factory, on special at 159$...

I want to imagine you this way: Even tho I think this is nearer to reality...

Thanks Mike! I am sure you'll be able, all together, to clean that .it of dust that has covered rwg in the last 2 years! Good luck:)

Agree with this statement. Proposition: what about a thread in which you can collect ideas and/or proposals (maybe accessible from vips only, or from people with a decent post count) that you may later on evaluate within the management group?

SA3135 Movement Yuki 3135 Interchangable Parts
GenTLe replied to WeenFiend's topic in The Rolex Area
TC stands for Thomas Caddel (no secret as reported also at his blog). Who is Tony Cheng? Le he is this guy: www.7750asian.com then do now worry, he is a TD, also if not here but on two forum. Otherwise... Uhmmm... -
Aperitif time in Italy. Aperol spritz

May someone confirm/deny if the Sub-C and the ceramic GMT2 both use the same DWO? I mean in terms of fonts / size / position or, in other words, if I have a good DW with his nice overlay for a SubC, will it fit centered and well in a GMT2 ceramic (in my case both are from Noob Factory and both with a2836)? Thanks, GenTLe

Yep, disks and pads, front and rear I degreased them

This afternoon, watch for heavy jobs, replacing the brakes to my car:

Problems with the Powermatic 80 movement -Anyone else?
GenTLe replied to panerai153's topic in The Audemars Piguet Area
In other words, if your watch has a 2824 then swap it with a 2842. Rolexes use the 2846 because they generally come from the factory with 2836. The difference is the stem height. -

2846 is direct swap with 2836. But they are rare birds... 2842 instead is direct swap with 2824. Anyway you can made a 2846 having a base plate of it and using parts from 2842 and the date change mech from a 2836 You can also use a 2836/2824 balance stop lever to make it hack when changing the time -
Thank you
