Movement Modification

[Torques]

I have a bunch of Submariners from the scam sites that contain the ST-6 movement. Does anyone know if I can purchase the 2836-2 movements and fit them into my cases. What is the part that connects those movements to the case? Currently, these ST-6 movements are held in place by the little plastic ring thingy.

Check out ofrei.com/ on the ST6D:

Movement size is the same at 11.5 lignes, ht. of the ST6D is slightly greater than the 2836 and hand size is different, 85/135/20 vs. 90/150/25 on the 2836. The good news is, you probably could reuse te plastic spacer ring! Or buy a new ST6D movement and keep on going. A set of hands for the ETA movt will run $15-25 depending on where you find them. You could check ebay for Tudor hands and maybe come up w/ something. Clark Watch Supply in CA has them as I recall. The things that hold the movements in place are sometimes referred to as movement tabs.
