Yes indeed the GMT gear is missing...

I have new ones of these in my parts bin, bought them for the short models with the Tuxedo dials...let me know if you need one.

Hi, I've pm'd you The Zigmeister about me also needing this wheel. It's for a PAM 63 GMT.

It seems these movements are shipped from the ETA factory without these GMT wheels.

Also, just in case you had not realised, the date wheel is for a 6 o'clock date window.

Yes hehe, but soon the new excellent datewheels will be available here on the forum, right?

By the way, does anybody now if the updated (bastardized) 2836 and the standard ETA 2893-2 use the same GMT wheel? Maybe the 2836 is of lesser quality? If the same GMT wheel, swapping movement shouldn't be so hard except the need for a spacer?

Maybe the experts know?
