YukiWatch 3135 Mini-review

[Ephry73]

Looks like a 16800 to me.

Can you see the link for more pics, its a 16610 case

[watcher]

Interesting, I've had L serials subs bit not with open fonts. Must 've a crossover or a 16610 case was added.

[quaresma7]

Do you know if 3035 and 3135 uses the same datewheel overlay?!

 

No it doesn't

 

Look that link of CS please, here says that DW can be used in 3035 and 3135

Not for nothing but if you look at the picture of the disc you can see 3035 is turning counterclockwise which is opposite on 3135

It's truth!! Thanks for your help misekped!

Hi guys! What do you think about that date disc with 6&9 open for Yuki movement?!

[DouglasSmith]

Looks pretty good!

Great Review! Thanks

[jigelow]

Just starting my franken and found this thread and joined just to thank you guys. Having a gen dial and hands already, I pretty much knew it was gen movement or Yuki for my only options. This gives me a bit more insight in to what I'd be getting in to. misiekped, are you still providing servicing on these or stocking them? If so, can you pm me what you charge?

Thanks again, guys!

[sacsah1]

U might wanna pm him, he is a great guy.

[jigelow]

I'll do that. Thanks!

The best option is to source an early gen trit dial 16610 as these had the open 6 & 9 but were for the cal.3135.

I bought one & had it installed on my Y3135. It replaces the othe gen 3135 I DW bought from Mike!

It completes my 16800.

Just got myself a yuki 3135 with gen parts overhaul. Going right into my franken 16613.

Saw some previous posts about rep cases fitted for 3035 vs 3135 working with these, but does anyone know if this will work in a gen 16013 case?

[curiousbunny]

Are the movement functions the same as gen? I often wonder the engineering process for replica movements. Also, I like how 3D printers for metal are becoming cheaper.

I can't believe a rep movement cost so much with so any problems...

Are mymanmatt's datejusts 100% 1:1 externally?

So many problems? Just have it serviced and you shouldn't have issues. Yukis definitely require a good service whereas an ETA/clone you can get away without one initially. Many people have yukis with no issues.

This.

I got one of Yuki's 3135s. Are there any RWG members who offer movement servicing?

[Ephry73]

Misi can service the movement and he has been doing some great research/development with the y3135.

Thanks, Ephry73

[chuckfindley]

I wonder, exactly how interchangeable is the y3135 with gen parts? I'd assume swapping out even a few parts, such as the escapement, main spring, balance wheel, etc for gen parts could turn a fairly reliable clone into a very impressive clone. With servicing of course.
