rillz Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would that be a lowbeat ETA? Lovely watch mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinitonsi Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would that be a lowbeat ETA? Lovely watch mate. It's what I thought, but another member on RG said it's not Low beat. Maybe he knows more than me and Domi about Swiss movements... Anyway, I like it as is Thx for the compliments 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 It's what I thought, but another member on RG said it's not Low beat. Maybe he knows more than me and Domi about Swiss movements... Anyway, I like it as is Thx for the compliments That's a beauty!! Took the best of two good ones and made a great one. AFA the movement, I certainly wouldn't go against Domi. He's forgotten more about movements than I will ever know. The ETA 2824 "out the box" is a 28800 fast beat movement, however it can be made a slow beat by using parts from an ETA 2846, which is a slow beat. Quite a few folks have modified the 2824 to slow beat by using this method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you know well, the watch can end up running ridiculously fast per day if the mod process is not executed well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riverking2 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Is there a reason why you mixed up V7 with Noob's version? I guess some parts are better than the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking about this mod, there is a knack to the modification process. Like you know well, the watch can end up running ridiculously fast per day if the mod process is not executed well... Thx again bro... Honestly I'm a Noob about movt. The only thing I know is that the watch runs like a champ and keeps great time. It's made by Domi Is there a reason why you mixed up V7 with Noob's version? I guess some parts are better than the others? Thx mate Yes there's a reason after I bought about 7 different Divers. I decided to take the best parts from Noob & JF (what I thought the best for me, personal pov) and make this built. The only think I would upgrade is the Xtal if ever I find a Gen one. Btw, the V7 Xtal is amazing but it's not gen Edited June 1, 2015 by Tinitonsi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkIf you are talking about a low beat movement conversion, it is between $250-450 depending on who you ask.I got mine done for about $250 all in and it runs like a champ.

excalibur Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 is a low beat conversion necessary? i mean is it noticable for the vast majority of people? i am trying to make up my mind whether to go for a fully modded version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority of people cannot tell the difference between a Rolex and a Timex. And furthermore, they don't care. What determines whether you opt to spend the time effort and money depends on your comfort level with replicas, whether or not you are in the company of other watch fanatics who own gens, and your ability to pull off a particular watch, be it a rep or gen.
