ETA 2836-2 in a GMT watch

Hi all

Well the 2836-2 as made by ETA doesn't have a GMT capability, but the Asians have modified the movement to give it a GMT capability.

It works just like a GMT should, but the quality of the modification varies from poor to very well done...and the only way to know this, is to remove the dial and have a look at the movement itself. Which is probably not an option in this case...

You don't hear of many folks with problems with these movements, so it's probably fine.

Hi,

I've a Timewalker with this modified movement, and will of course confirm that it works as a GMT. No problem whatsoever for the 7 last monthes (bought from River mid of april this year).

I have had a few and have not had any problems.

I had a 063 with the same movement and the GMT didn't work that great.
