Replacing seconds at 6 Daytona movement

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to replace the seconds at 6 Daytona movement with a seconds at 9 or a Segull ST-19 hand wiring movement? Will they fit?

No you will need a dial as well sub dials are in a different place

Ok, thanks :D I wonder why manufacturers don't go back to the seconds at 9 movement if seconds at 6 is so problematic :Whistle: Or maybe something new. Seconds at 6 movement has been around for a while now.

Daytona seconds at 9 are available and the latest seconds at 6 seem to be much better as well

I suppose Rolex does it this way on purpose as a copy-protection scheme vs reps.

If I'm not wrong, . Zenit El Primero has seconds at 9, so the previous replicas were ok

Well, this thread was started in March, 2011. Now in May, 2011 some new Daytona reps came out with hand wind Asian Venus 75, so I have to ask again :) Does anybody know if the sec at 6 movement can be replaced for an Asian Venus 75?

 

I suspect that it may be possible since both watches are basically the same thing, but I can't confirm.
