Machinery for a Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller rep

[Nakatomi63 0]

Hello everyone,

I have a very good replica of a Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller (44 mm.) But its machinery has broken down. I would like to buy a new, automatic machinery, which enters its case although its appearance is not like the original. It is important that it be a reliable machinery and as accurate as possible.

My question is where can I buy that kind of machinery from a reliable seller.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi !

I guess by machinery you mean "movement".

To help you we need to know which rep of the DSSD you have (which factory ?) Do you have a link of where you bought hit ?

Or if you happen to know the movement name already ?

[Nakatomi63 0]

Yes, i mean movement (sorry for my bad english, I have to help me with google translate...) . I don't know which factory, i bought it about 5 or 6 years ago in a chinese web that i can't  find now.  I paid for it about 500 USD or something more and was a replica of the original movement even in the look.  It worked fine until a fall broke it.

Can you help me?

[Glaude 1,615]

Can you post some pictures of your watch, including the movement ?

[SteveA 307]

If you can give some more details and pics of the movement it is much easier to advise as different reps take different movements.

Do you know what’s wrong with it cos it maybe a repai will do

[Nakatomi63 0]

I sent the DSSD to a watch repairman. .. I will ask for the pictures and  what parts he need to repair it. 

Thank you very much and we keep in touch.

Make a ball of duck tape, sticky side facing out. Use that ball to open your watch case back. Take 3 or 4 pictures of the movement.

Post the pictures in here. Then we will know more about your watch so we can help.

You have been ripped at that price. Most probably it is a 2836 one.

Here are the pictures that the watch repairman sent me.  I hope they are good enough. I think I remember that he told me that the broken part is the axis of the steering wheel, if that is how it is called in english ...

I think that you will find that the pivots or staff of the balance wheel are broken. For balance wheel think steering wheel.  For axis think of the shaft that goes down through the balance wheel and locates in jewels/bearings at each end. If the pivot  - pointy bit - at either end of the axis/steering wheel is broken then you will need a replacement.

I think it's best to buy a new movement but I do not know which and where. Can you help me?

[slashdotcom 0]

hmm...my advice is to buy a new watch i think that for the money of new movement and the watchmaker you can get one of new versions

[Luxuracer 14]

Swap the movement out with a new Seagull ST2100 Clone 2836-2 ($85) ... and it will last you another 5 years.

Check with your local watchsmith to see how much they charge to do it for you. Tell them it is a replica.

If it is too much hassle then just buy a new watch.  

[Nakatomi63 0]

Thank you very much for the information. The watch repairman knows that it is a replica, I will ask him about the price of the placement of the movement. I just want to make sure that this movement fits perfectly with the SDDS case before order it ...

In case it is better to buy a new one, model 2018 Dial-Blue (DEEPSEA letters in green), what do you think of these two websites? in one the price is 588 USD while in the other it is 529 USD. It is important for me to be the closest thing to the original. I see that the movements differ, Asian Super 3135 vs Asian 2824-2 which costs 529 USD whose diameter is 43 mm. being the 44 mm original ...

Do you see the right price?

Do you recommend some other website that is reliable and offers a good SDDS 2018 Blue rep?

DO NOT BUY from those two websites ... @Nakatomi63

Any dealer on the RWG Trusted Dealer List can get you one of those watches.

DTime is OK ... but their prices are 15-20% higher. Giving you an example, the same watches on TrustyTime are $488 and $478

Here is the TD List

So far there's been reports of watches being shipped and received, but if anything would happen to go wrong, the forum would not provide any support on the issue, that make them not OK regarding to forum rules, since he's a noob I think this is an adequate reminder.

OP : You've got screwed big time if you paid this rep $500 5-6 years ago, do a bit of research on the forum, Rolex rep are very well document in here and on RWI

NO COMPRE desde esos dos sitios web ... @ Nakatomi63

Cualquier distribuidor en la lista de distribuidores de confianza de RWG puede conseguir uno de esos relojes.

DTime está bien ... pero sus precios son un 15-20% más altos. Dando un ejemplo, los mismos relojes en TrustyTime cuestan $ 488 y $ 478

Aquí está la lista de TD

 

I see, thank you very much for the advice. I see that the diameter of the case is 43 mm. instead of 44 mm. Would you recommend one of the two movements that they offer?

Of course, the forum is not responsible if there is an issue. I already knew it but you do well to notice it.

The 43mm diameter is a listing error ... the actual replica watch is 44mm the same diameter as the genuine watch.

As for the movement .... many many people will tell you to get the A2824 movement because it is more reliable. 

I, personally, will get the SH3135. I have my reasons. 

But in your case, I think the A2824 would be best for you.

Thank you very much everyone for your help and kindness. I am very happy to have discovered this forum and I am going to recommend it. Let's get in touch.

So it's with the watchsmith

 

What's his quote to fix the balance staff?

So long as he hasn't any delusions of filmstar remuneration this is by far your simplest solution

 

It's a common malaise with a watch that has taken a 'knock', and it is simply fixed
