Omg! My Eta2836-2 Movement Stopped...

[ED_Rolex]

In my former modification, I have had made my Sub movement stopped, can you all experts suggest me to buy a new watch indeed or repair the ETA movement?

As I have already replaced the tube for the case... I don't wanna waste the case

Thanks!

if you installed a gen tube & crown & used the old stem , it is likely that the stem might be to long or to short .

i did the same mod & shortly after that my sub died just stopped working ..

with the help of my friends on RWG they help me out with this problem ..

so i re-cut a new eta stem & she's back & running keeping great time , i just trimmed the CG'S & waiting on new case clamps ..

good luck ..

Try letting the watch run with the crown unscrewed from the tube. This will let off any pressure on the stem, and will tell you if something is binding or not.

The problem is I have tried to repair the ETA by myself!!

Parts are all here, haven't lost any, but I really can't re-assembly the movement

HAHA!

Don't know what to tell you. It's not a good idea to take your watch apart if you don't know what you're doing. Try sending it to one of the trusted watchsmiths on the board. Good Luck

HAHA!

there was no need to tear apart your eta movement

most likely was only a simple stem repair
