😆💯

I would definitely start off with NH movement rather than ST. Good luck with the crusade to abolish the word "indices" 😆

@@watchify1775 lol noo "indices" is totally correct; it's the plural of "index". It's "indice" (without the "s") that is wrong. Anyway, thanks for the advice and the video 🙂 I'm gonna order an NH35A movement

I left links in the video description

No you do not

Thanks! The tool I used to apply the hands did come from amazon. I bought www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0748HZTMH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but am only using the plunger part. I prefer these better though www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PVPJ44Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1. In the video the springbar remover is a higher quality Bergeon that I paid around 30$ for.

Yeah I have thought about that. I probably will

I think you mean the rotor. Yes, they can be interchanged if the movements involved are the same model or family of models. Example a rotor from a 4R36 movement can work with another 4R36, a 4R35, NH36, NH35, 4R34. There is just a tiny screw in middle holding it in place.

Sorry - I'm only familiar with more modern movements. I would suggest you google the watch model to find the movement caliber and see if they are still for sale and able to be replaced. I understand the watch has sentimental value but I would still be curious to see how much it is worth in as-is condition since it is so old. Some older watches are quite valuable and replacing the movement would ironically lower the value. Generally speaking, yes, with basic tools you can replace most watch movements. They sell inexpensive kits on amazon. You might also want to contact this youtuber to see if he would be interested in taking on the challenge of repairing the watch. He seems like a good guy. kzfaq.infoabout

Sorry. Im not familiar with a 2813 movement. I tried googling it too.

@@watchify1775 2813 automatic movement Chinese

Looks like not without modification to the NH. They don't have the same exact dimensions

🤔

usually the case back will tell you what movement came with the watch. If not, you could open the case back and take a look at the movement itself. Googling is very helpful once you have a few bits of info

Probably a NH35/36, Myota, PT500 sw2000. Those are the most common.

No. For second hand placement it doesn't matter. Movement doesn't have to be stopped to place hands.

Thank you for the reply :) and awesome content my friend!

Thanks for posting this. I have just found out that it will cost almost double the price of a brand new 2824-2 movement to have my Mühle glashütte serviced. Therefore I think I would like to swap out the movement myself. It looked like you were using an LED magnifying glass rather than a loop. Would you recommend this and what type was it. Thanks...Jim

I'm not sure what movements that watch would use. I'm only familiar with 4R/6R/NH movements which are almost universal to Seiko and many micro brands. I don't need to measure since I'm replacing with a movement in same family.

@@watchify1775 Thank you, sorry its 44ml so if i buy the exact same movement thats in my watch it should be ok? its just a cheap st2555 movement

I don't think that is possible. I looked at all my watches and the only candidate where it might work would be my solar quartz diver SNE583 but I have my doubts

Was more like how u swap a chinese to a miyota (SL 28s and how you find the miyota equivalens)

If the watch is inexpensive, may make more sense to just purchase a whole new watch. Otherwise you can google the watch brand\model to try to get info on the movement inside.
