Hello everyone, a few months ago I received a rolex cosmographic daytona replica as a present. Sadly a few weeks ago the hour wheel and something I can not remember now broke inside the movement.

I took the watch to a repair shop and the gentleman told me that he doesn't know what exact movement is inside because its a Chinese one and finding replacement parts for the movement will be difficult.

So I took it upon myself to find out what kind of movement it is and if it is possible to get replacement parts or the same movement. I'm not a specialist with watches but I found out that it looks like the 2813 movement but I know it can't be it because mine has chronographic functions and the 2813 I found in the Internet do not support the chronograph "time stopping" function.

The watch has sentimental value to me and I would love to see it ticking again.

Here I have a image:

I googled already the Asian 21j chrono movement, made by Nanning company and the ones I find look like my movement but do not have the chronographic function (time stopper).

Could you guys send me a link of the exact movement where I could purchase it. I'm afraid to purchase the wrong one.

Thank you guya for the help!

So you’re looking for a 2813 based movement with actual chronographic functionality with a stationary large seconds hand that starts/stops with the top pusher and returns to 12 with the bottom pusher while the sub dials register elapsed time? Hmmm... you’re probably going to need a unicorn hunting license.

Hor-Fan, before the watch broke the functions actually did work. I could do exactly the things you mentioned in your last message. I have asked my watcher to open up the watch and show the front of the movement. Here is the image for the back and the front again:

I´m really grateful for the help on this matter.

Centre seconds and seconds at 6 are connected. Go through the Nanning website, look through their chrono movements and find one that does the same thing.

I did and the only "3 hand" (dont know if that is said correctly) are the ones with "date functions".

I think there only two types on the website with "3 hand":

1. http://www.nnsbc.cn/english/Products_Show.asp?id=43
2. http://www.nnsbc.cn/english/Products_Show.asp?id=17

I know it´s not the exact one but maybe I can use one of those movements?

I think it might be Nr. 1....

What do you guys think?

Thanks again for the help, I really appreciate it!

Both of those movements linked look identical. It doesn't say what the centre second does, but logically it runs with the second at 6.

I have been searched now for days for the exact movement...I´m thinking of just getting the 2813 movement for the spare hour wheel that is broken in mine. I´m getting desperate here :( I wish I could have just found an entire/same replacement movement for the watch :/

if you guys have any other ideas...I´m open for anything.
