jerkstore Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I'm having a hard time finding dial size information for some reason... Does anybody know if a dial meant for a 15000 midsize case will fit in a ref 1500? Ever try it? Also, the ETA 2824-2 seems to be everybody's go-to for the 1500, but can anybody recommend a slow-beat? Even--heresy, I know--a Chinese movement? I think the original movement in the case beat < 8 times/sec. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think the two dials are about the same. The case size is 34mm in both cases. The 1575 movement in a Date beat at 19800 bph. I don't know what eta would work- you'd have to research it. The earlier etas were low beat- 18000 to 21600 You could check Ranftt and maybe find one that would work. I can't remember all of the early etas- 2783 and 2784 are a couple, there are some 2400 series etas also. All are old and long out of production A 2846-2 is 21600 bph, but the stem position probably won't work in a 1500 case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
