im thinking DG3804B il see who has them in stock i think ofrei and startime do them need to check tho unless you can point me to a better source (i have enough eta movements needing work and serviced )lol

Looks like CousinsUK have them as well. Reference CH3804M for one with gold plates (£22.95) and CH3804BM for the silver-coloured one (£20.25). Prices ex. vat

All 2836-2834-2832-2873-2846 etc use the same size hands. Perhaps the tower on one of your pinons is to tall or to short. The hand stack should be, hour hand, 24 hour hand, minute hand, sweep second. All of those movements use the day wheel portion of the movement to set the 24 hour hand. They simply remove the set triper for the day wheel, and replace it with a toothed wheel which controls the gear on the 24 hour hand. Very simple conversion. Ck all post heights on you movement to make sure they are correct. 24 hour gear on top of the hour gear, small space above that for your minute hand, then install your sweep second. You can do it, just be patient and ck everything before you start.

The hand stack for ALL ETA GMT movements, Chinese converted or the top ETA2893-2 is the GMT 4th hand on the bottom, then the hour hand, then the minute hand and then the second hand.

Has anyone else noticed an increase in the demand for a 1675? Seems to be very popular

Lol, it's the new Sub.

id rather have a 6542 but right now cant afford a gen and there's no decent reps out and building one would just be a nightmare for me.

(waits for all the past builds and franklin to appear in the thread to add to my rage and jealousy.)

I'm really feeling your pain...I just finished this one and everything fit on the 2846. All works well.

i am scared to think what will go wrong next the crown and stem maybe since im using a gen crown or maybe the dwo will crumble or il spill glue in the movement lol

The DG movement takes different size hour, minute and second hands than the ETA or genuine Rolex. I'd bet Yuki's would not fit, I don't believe he has any for the Chinese movements.

I thinkl RafflesTime is the best bet.

yea i have 2 sets already on there way from raffles my review and story of this build will be about 90 pages long .
