Cardshark00 Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Why is the 3186 always more ? Because its the "clone" movt ? I can only imagine that would be a plus if you were trying to scam somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 the 3186 really isn't a clone, just has some additional "decorations" which often cause reliability to suffer - it probably wouldn't fool very many people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 And besides, it is a close case back. If not I would consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 The chinese 3186 movement is not a clone. It has a couple of parts loosely screwed onto the movements plate to roughly look like a Rolex part. these extra pieces come loose and jam up in to the moving parts. Always avoid these.

Unfortunately not screwd, it would be fixable. Glued. Get te plain eta copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 The rotor screw has a cover stuck over it while the faux bridge piece is attached with one (often loose) screw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
