Dommysam 0 Posted January 20, 2023 Hi all, I wonder if anyone is clever enough to help identify the movement in my (I think) V6 no-date Sub rep. It’s broken and before I consider getting it fixed I thought I’d see whether it’s a cheap Chinese movement. If so I’d rather buy a replacement and swap it over - bit of a project. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dommysam 0 Posted January 20, 2023 Thanks @GC - is that a definite, if so I’ll see if I can track one down at a good price. Not really sure where to start other than Google so any tips please shout! Great help though mate, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should take a pic of the movement under the dial to be sure. This is a 2836: And this is a 2824: From behind they look the same, but their stem height is different and the date wheel isn't compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APjumbo 3,030 Posted January 25, 2023 A quick way to tell is: when you rotate the crown through 360, how far does the minute hand move? If 90 mins, then you have a 21J or 2813; if 45-60 mins, you have a 2836/2824. Turn hands until the date flips Then backward to 8:00 Then forward If date flips its 2824 Doesn’t flip then its 2836 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
