robznet 0 Posted August 18, 2011 Hi guys, just inherited a seadweller case and bracelet from a friend. The movement had died and been binned so I claimed it! It was one of the "cheapies" from Silix btw. Question is - does anyone know where I could get hold of a replacement movement, dial and hands to fit this case - oh... and stem and crown to suit also. I have looked at Ofrei and Cousins but with my limited knowlege I am confused by ligne sizes etc. I have uncased movements before so ideally I would like a complete movement (ie with dial and hands already fitted) so I can just pop it in myself! Any pointers would be very much appreciated - thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rober100 0 Posted August 19, 2011 As far as I know, chinese factories are quite reluctant to sell rep dials and hands alone. If you find any seller, please let us know. Yuki has rep dials and hands but at a price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akira 0 Posted August 19, 2011 I have a spare DG2813 21J Never used from CousinsUK. I ordered it by mistake. PM me if it's something you might need. Also for Rolexhands to fit the DG movement there is a seller on Ebay. I dealt with him before For a dial, just check the sales threads on RG and RWG2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prestigewatchco 2 Posted August 19, 2011 Put it back in the bin and buy a new one the cost of the parts you need will almost certainly come close to the price of a complete new watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have decided not to try repairs on this watch now - it's a bit of a lost cause, but I'm sure a friend of mine was also looking for a DG 2813, what would you want for it? PM me if you don't want to post prices on the forum! Cheers mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
