Lovethedevil Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 I gave my RO Quartz mid-sized for an inspection; there they told me I would have to get the quartz mouvement changed which would cost me about 2000 Euro, yes 2000. Is this normal? Are there any other solutions to the story. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offshore Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Absolutely not! The most expensive quartz movements retail @U$40 -U$80, depending on brand/ model. Labour to transplant, should be no more than another $30 -$40. Tops! See if you can ID the movement make and model, and we can better advise, or post a photo. I do maybe 3-4 quartz transplants each week, and the mot expensive are a little over $100, whilst the majority are from $20- $50.

offshore Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Go and have a look at this. https://secure.eta.ch/CSP/DesktopModules/Vi...&DocType=DT These are the ETA 7 3/4 ligne movements. Measure 17.20 x 2.6 high. Can't find any quartz 7 ligne around. Ronda also have a 7 3/4, #772/#3/#5 ( haven't checked its dimensions.) Need to know. Number of hands. Stack. Date wheel? Position? Colour of d/wheel. How critical is movement height? (as I realise this is a thin case.) Without seeing the case, it is difficult to plan the best approach to this. Maybe a smaller movement will work fine?? trial & error, this one!!!! Offshore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
