Love my watch but the movement that came from the factory is not working. I’ve asked several watch makers on the forum to look at it but they all said they didn’t work on that movement. Is there an aftermarket movement like Seagull that has something that will work? I hate to put the watch in the back of my chest drawer.

Thanks

Aren't most of these A2824s with a decorative plate?

So if that is the case that all these replica 8500 movements are just A2824s then do you have someone put in a new 2824 movement and reattach the plate? I’m no watchmaker so I need guidance whether to pick up a replacement A2824 and have someone put it in or just sell it as is? Right now it’s a a fairly expensive paperweight.

Still have not heard back from him yet. Hopefully soon. I just want to know if I should keep or sell it.
