irolexu Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 I ordered some hands and turns out they are not the right hands from Clarks. My franken has the wrong hand set that I set in there temporarily though some argue it gives it a unique look I am looking for the correct look If any one would kindly donate or sell me some hands that would be killer! its for a 36mm case set with a swiss ETA 2836-2. PM me or reply via thread and we can go from there! or simply point me to where I need to go to order the right ones! thanks RWG!
preacher62 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 What hands are you looking for. My experience is that Clark has near perfect hands for a DJ unless you are looking for some special hands that went with a particular model. These hands are from Clark and I think they are ok.
irolexu Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Posted October 5, 2011 Nothing particular I ordered from him except I got the wrong size hands so maybe he will get me the right ones or maybe someone on the forum has some extras lying around. Not going for perfect hands but if I can get them the better
alligoat Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 Did you order the Datejust hands for Tudor? If you order the DJ hands for Rolex, you will get the wrong ones since Rolex hand sizes don't fit an eta. Also, Clark's doesn't sell DJ hands for the asian 21j.
grifter Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 i might have rep hands left over from a day date project that never got finished. i check when i get home!

Yes I got it for the Tudor and lol no 21j in my Franken they just seem way to small i might have rep hands left over from a day date project that never got finished. i check when i get home! Awesome as long as they are not gold!!
alligoat Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Clark hands worked fine on both of my frankenjusts
irolexu Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Posted October 6, 2011 Ya looks good I'm using these hands after all I thought at first glance they were the wrong lengths but they are fine!
Kerbus Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 I had the same exact thing happen to me, wrong hands. Got a new set,that was correct and they still had to be broached to fit.
mkjd Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 I had the same exact thing happen to me, wrong hands. Got a new set,that was correct and they still had to be broached to fit. Mine too, I got the "for Tudor" hands from clarks and they were waaaaay too tight for the ETA movt, the only one that fitted ok was the seconds hand.
JoeyB Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 ETA 28XX movements take 90/150/25 hands. If Clark's are not fitting right, let him know. He is a stellar guy, will make it right, and would want to know if his supplier made or marked them wrong.
irolexu Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Posted October 9, 2011 They put up a fight going on but there good solid looking hands but definitely could be super lumed
