ssh 0 Posted July 5, 2014 thanks for your response. what exactly am i looking at here. i dont know much about the internal components I'm afraid. Also what sort of cost is going to be associated with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frankt8242 1 Posted July 5, 2014 thanks for your response. what exactly am i looking at here. i dont know much about the internal components I'm afraid. Also what sort of cost is going to be associated with this? Normally when these movements break, it's cheaper to just replace them than to diddle with them...They can usually be had in the $25.-$50. price range, and are not really hard to switch out if you have a modicum of experience...Good luck!!

kkz88 0 Posted July 5, 2014 Similar A2813 but this is gold movement fast jump change date same price ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulc 0 Posted July 5, 2014 If you are buying from cousins, the dg4813 is in stock and a bit cheaper and a highbeat version of the dg2813, I had a busted dg2813 and swapped the 2813 out for the 4813, the original hands and movement ring fitted to lovely but the stem looked slightly different so I used the one that came with the new movement but as mentioned with a movement so cheap it is not worth sending off to a watchsmith.

ssh 0 Posted July 6, 2014 I recall it being a miyota moment rather than the asian 21j model. is it possible to get that movement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
