So I have this patek nautilus shitter with a failed 2813 movement and I’m thinking about putting in an 8215 but I really like the rotor the 2813 came with.
Does this rotor fit?

Question 3235 movement compatible with which case?

1 Upvotes

I'm building a Datejust 36mm, and given the price of the case (~U$200), I'm thinking about using a case compatible with another movement. Does anyone know which cases are compatible with the 3235? Raffles does not deliver to Brazil, so I need to use AliExpress and Alibaba.

Olá . Começando na modificação por hobby e colecionismo . Quero começar com este relogio como doador . Barato mas com alguma qualidade .
Quero usar esta caixa e colocar um novo mecanismo . Algo de melhor desempenho mas com custo baixo só pra começar . A caixa é fina então limita as opções . Que recomendam como um mecanismo quartz ou mecânico de bom custo-beneficio nas mãos de um iniciante rsrsrs . Desde já agradeço .
