maxmilian Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 Well the topic says it all is there a 28 8000 chinese movement that will fit a noobmariner ? If so anyone know where to find one ? Thanks
its_urabus Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 I believe there is an eta option. I will be looking for a movement upgrade soon as well. good luck with your quest
w.genzo Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 A DG4813 should fit, and it beats at 28800 bph It's about 25$ Ofrei DG4813

maxmilian Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 Anyone knows where to order this DG4813 in Europe ? cousins dont seem to have it.
FxrAndy Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 They used to have it, i think they typoed it look for 8413, but i found it and linked here, i am pretty sure this is it
hyster Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 Anyone knows where to order this DG4813 in Europe ? cousins dont seem to have it. Have a search under China movements for 8413, from memory I think they have the first two numbers back to front. EDIT Beaten to it by Andy
maxmilian Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks a lot boys, you are the best Has anyone by any chance done this, put this one in a noobmariner, I am thinking of datewheels etc...
FxrAndy Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 You will need to swap the overlay from the noob 2813 to this.
maxmilian Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 You will need to swap the overlay from the noob 2813 to this. Yeah no problems but will it fit ??
FxrAndy Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 The 4813 is the same size as the 2813 (slow beat) with the same date wheel and all, the only difference between the two is the beat rate
sssurfer Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 On what i know, the 4813 is even a little thinner than the 2813 (4.60mm vs 5.25 - 5.45mm). So it should fit even more easily. Just, maybe you will have to use a thicker spacer ring in order to compensate for the larger room left below the caseback. I also hope that the stem stays aligned with the tube in spite of the lower movement thickness.
maxmilian Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks again I will give it a try....if I can order one from cousins
sssurfer Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 Unfortunately cousinsuk don't have it... Please also re-read my post as I edited it by adding a last line.
jdfaker Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 I bought one from ofrei and it looks like it should fit... Im waiting on a new crown before I fully install everything, but from everything Ive read it should work fine.
jdfaker Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 Update: It looks like the dial feet don't fit from a 2813 to a 4813... The holes are slightly off. Either that, or Im a retard.

jdfaker Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 Confirmed, dial feet dont fit... I just broke them off, glued the spacer to the dial, and glued my datewheel to my 4813. Once these are dry I guess Ill glue my spacer to the movement and see if I can put this [censored] together!
jdfaker Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Ugh, this isnt going well, haha... Newest problem: Dial spacer from 2813 is way too thick for 4813, but I already gorilla glued it to the dial, so I guess now im gonna spend hours trying to file it down because I dont think I can get it off the dial without the dial breaking. Any suggestions would be appreciated
jdfaker Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Woohoo, once I filed down the movement spacer and glued everything together it works like a charm!! 2813 -> 4813 = doable
maxmilian Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Posted March 20, 2008 Woohoo, once I filed down the movement spacer and glued everything together it works like a charm!! 2813 -> 4813 = doable Thanks for the info, I have talked to another member doing the same swap didnt have problem with the spacer or the dial feet, He did the swap on asian SFSO though so maybe it is spacial on the noob... Either way I will give it go Once again thanks for sharing.
