ShovelnTC 31 Posted March 29, 2017 So after having a stuffed movement when delivered I swapped out the old 2813 with a "New" one. It now keeps great time BUT........................................................... :o I spent a F'n hour trying to embed this thing but can't sort it so you'll need to hit the link. Action doesn't get interesting until around 12 O'Clock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dadog13 0 Posted March 29, 2017 I have the same issue with my RM 035 Rafa Nadal - I found out about this issue only once I got the watch, did not read the multiple threads across the rep forums which were speaking about this issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShovelnTC 31 Posted March 29, 2017 Yip, looks fucked up Was a cheapie to start with as it was a gift for my son and I didn't know if he'd be interested then bought a better version to replace it and then bought a new movement for tinkering "experience" so now I have a fairly good time keeping watch (the stutter doesn't affect accuracy) that I will NEVER use that cost me waaaaaay too much being that it is after all a cheapy so I guess it will be sold off as a repairer down the track. It has reinforced my avoidance of the cheap lowbeats forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Fun Socks 76 Posted March 29, 2017 Is this a common problem with 2813 and 8015 movements then? Something to avoid for the future! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShovelnTC 31 Posted March 29, 2017 Is this a common problem with 2813 and 8015 movements then? Something to avoid for the future! Not common when compared with how many of these movements are sold but just google it and you'll find plenty of complaining. Nice stop motion animation :) Wish it was :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genius 281 Posted March 29, 2017 Is this a common problem with 2813 and 8015 movements then? Something to avoid for the future! It seems to only happen with a heavy second hand and the fact it is weighted at the end on this model doesn't seem to help Is this a common problem with 2813 and 8015 movements then? Something to avoid for the future! Not common when compared with how many of these movements are sold but just google it and you'll find plenty of complaining. Nice stop motion animation :) Wish it was :( See if you can get a non lollipop second hand there's a reasonable chance it'll solve the issue. Also for youtube just remove the "s" from https and it will embed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShovelnTC 31 Posted March 29, 2017 It seemed to be very lose even when fitting the second hand so I think it's more than the weight. And thanks for the YT tip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusty peters 0 Posted March 29, 2017 I had a Sinn U1 with a 2813. I couldn't wear it because the stutter filled my stomach with so much anger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted March 29, 2017 It's the weight. Whichever way you hold the watch you should find it only happens when gravity is pulling the hand in the direction of travel. I believe it's all to do with backlash in the gears. On the way uphill, the backlash is taken up and the hand is being driven. On the way downhill, the sloppy gearing allows the hand to drop ahead of the gearing. In the background, the basic timekeeping is unaffected, so if you time it from halfway uphill all the way round to halfway uphill again, it takes the correct 60 seconds.

ShovelnTC 31 Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah timekeeping is perfect, I have tried the watch at different angles and it does improve but not enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RepGuy 108 Posted March 29, 2017 I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but in my professional opinion, your watch has autism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
