Erict719 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I have a crap $100 sub c which has asian movement . I don't know what version. The date change right at 12, and there is not delay. But on real eta 2824-2 the date keep draging lower until it snap at 12 am as I know rolex Mvt doesn't drag, it snap right at 12 . So asian Mvt is better in term I gen function?

mymanmatt Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 NO! Swiss is better. The reason your's drags is because the dwo was not placed high enough for it to clear the base plate. It's draging on th main plate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erict719 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Do you mean the Dw overlay is draging on the actual date wheel ? As is that what base plate means? if so, do I put extra glue or tape the raise the overlay between the date wheel? Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 There is a little sheet metal plate that covers up the keyless and it's a bugger to put an overlay on the stock 2824 DW and not have the overlay drag on aforementioned sheet metal plate...

sneed12 Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 The ETA 2824 does not have the snap date change; the date changes gradually starting about 10:30 or 11pm. This is normal and correct, it's how the movement functions. If the date change drags past midnight, then the DWO is likely dragging as the above posters suggest. The ETA 2836 has instant date change. It requires a number of additional parts, including that big Y-shaped spring that sits under the date disc. If you want that functionality, use a 2836 instead of a 2824 in your rep if it will fit wit the stem height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sneed12 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 This is why I have 2836's in my TC v4s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
