joshua watch movement choice on Rolex

Recommended Posts

just purchased a rolex rep from joshua, there were 3 identical watches except for the movement asian 2813, asian 2836/31 and asian 2836/313 (you can see on his website under rolex day/date blue face leather strap note new web address-- (p-cls.com)each $100 more than the other with no other difference that i can see then movement. I think the difference is how close to original the watch would look if opened. If that's not important to me is there any reason to spend more?

thanks for helping this noobie

Like MD says, I'd go with the asian eta clone- the 2836-31.

The 2813 may be a high beat, but it's still an asian 21j. But it may work for you, do you feel lucky?

I'm not keen on these movements made to look like a Rolex 3135, but apparently they sell. But at least with an asian eta clone, a watchmaker can work on it.
