jpz5142 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 It's a ETA 2836 movement that has been modified to look like a 3135. It's likely not really a Swiss, any one that knows anything about movements will know that it's not a real 3135 and it costs more than a standard 2836. What else would you like to know?

fabioliveri Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 so basically a Eta 2836-2, really don't mind to have it transformed as 3135, a good eta is enough. I want to buy a bp sub c, so, don't know if buy the cheapest powered by asian 2813 and then replace it for a gen eta 2836-2 or spend 170 usd more and get the bp sub c with that movement and leave it as is. asia 2813 has the same size of 2836-2? what do you think mate? thanks in advances, very kind of you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpz5142 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 The DG 2813 is not interchangeable with a 2836 (Asian nor Swiss) they have different hand size, dial feet position and diameter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero_deficit Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 21J: Buy if you want a cheap movement, that can be cheaply replaced should it stop working. Will most likely come in low-beat, though high beats are available sometimes (not as reliable) A2824/2836: Buy if you want a reliable workhorse. Can be serviced or replaced with another A28xx or Swiss ETA. A3135: Buy if you want to spend extra money on a movement that hardly looks like a genuine 3135 and comes with many reliability problems.

fabioliveri Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 thanks guys, will get A2836 and will replace it with gen ETA last question,is the DWO from BP factory good enough or better replace it with a TC overlay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpz5142 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Why replace the Asian 2836? Just have it serviced and it'll work just as good as the Swiss version. I mean if you want to waste money I'll give you my PayPal and you can send me $200 bucks just for the hell of it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabioliveri Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 well, here I can get a eta 2836-2 for 90€….I just don't like chineses movement, for me it's just asian s**** prefer put in a swiss stuff which I know it is good! I could try for sometime…but don't trust in it. Better you send me the 200 bucks, and I can buy the gen crystal mate ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpz5142 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Well read around, after a service these Asian "POS" movements run just as good as Swiss. Or, just run it until it gives you major issues then replace it with a Swiss. Likely that swiss eta will need a service just the same.
