bwhitesox Posted January 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Whats the difference in the 2 movements...Is it that the 2836-2 is modified from its original state and wasn't designed to be a GMT movement ( This is just a guess by the way) And if so is it reliable.

As an RWG supporter, you have access to The Zigmeister's articles. Here's one where he answers your questions: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?autoco...ticle&id=35 Although it is specific to the Rolex hand stack version, I think it's applicable.

dadog13 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Another question...Could I buy an ETA 2893 and swap the movement.? Would the hands etc all fit? hands wouldn't fit...you should source new hands...ajoesmith posted a thread about the hands for eta2893-2 PAM...if there is enough interest he could probably source some...

panchovilla Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Where did you get the gen hands - esp. the gmt arrow? -P Here are the reps for comparison purposes. Mods include: relume, gen hands and crown, Jimmy CG, watchmaster cylops and lello datewheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archibald Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 I've been toying with the idea of producing a new 6 mm cyclops with proper magnification that would be suitable for the 29,63,etc. I could use a couple spares myself. If there's enough demand, it might be worthwhile. And besides, then people wouldn't have to use a rep of my previous cyclops that was sized for newer PAMs only. Great idea!!! BTW, no need for any kind of AR on the 29 since the gen had none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
