DG2813?

Recommended Posts

pmartin245

Is this a DG2813? Watch was sold to me as a 28.8k bph but my timer says different. Movement is shot and needs replaced. Need to know what to purchase to send off to watchmith. And where to purchase? eBay? I'm located in ConUS. Thanks in advance.

Yeah, 2813. If you're upgrading to a 2836 or something like that, you may also need different hands from what I've read about people upgrading from 21J to high beat movements.

Cousinsuk or ofrei depending on where you are. Rolie knows about these things though so maybe he has a link to some on the bay?

Also toolbox2009 ebay shop has them at a good price. If you see the shop empty just replace .com with .co.uk and buy from the UK version of ebay.

New dial and hands. Better to spend $30 for 21j.

 

It is a very easy repair.

Thanks all! Off to look for a 2813. A quick glance it looks like nobody on eBay carries these 2813 movements stateside. Guess I'll have to get one from overseas?

Yeah. I agree. 21j suits me just fine and I dunno if a new hand set is worth the minute difference.

As gentle said toolbox2009 has them but his shop is only visible via ebay.com or you could try a search on the bay for 2813 .

Also a lot of the cheap automatic chinese watches on the bay have 2813 movements in

The hands would probably be the wrong size and the dial feet wouldn't be in e correct place. More trouble than it's worth... :)

I have a question. Would the date wheels be interchangeable on a dg2813. So in context - my faulty omega PO movement is now tinkered to death. So I want to replace the movement! Will the date wheel swap out with the one in the new movement?

That was my first ever tinkering job. There's an old thread I wrote on it.

 

In my case the DW was interchangeable. Having seen many more movements now, I'd say mostly yes but you might be unlucky. Go for it!

Go for is - it's gotta be the way. Normally resulting in the usual draw of failed attempts! But it's fun trying. Thank you Sir.

 

Going to search for your old thread. :)

Very happy to try and help on here. Why not start a thread and post a few pics. We can do it.

I may wait until I have some level of success. If I posted my journey with my PO so far I would appear to be a man who should NEVER be let near any watch!

 

Seriously though you're right about starting a thread. These threads always get a lot of interest. We can do it. :)
