Hi to everybody,
I have bought my rolex submariner "HULK" where inside there is the 21j movement.
This work fine but I have some noise with the rotor and the movement of second lancet is not the same the original.
for this reason I would like replace this with a movement at 28.800....the 3135 clone and eta 2836-2 are so expensive.....any other solution?

The 3135 will not work because the dial and hands are a different size. Im not sure about the 2836, someone else should be able to tell you

I'm pretty sure 2836 won't fit. Alternatively, you can try 4813

I'm working on the as well, and coincidentally it's a hulk. From what I gather the Miyota 8215 and 9015 will be a direct swap from the dg2813. If you have a special date wheel overlay you may want to bring it forward.

What I really want to do is learn to swap an a2836 in my 21j watches. I guarantee it will involve snipping off the dial feet, and using dial dots, and new hands. Other than those relatively simple tasks, I think it's doable. Will report back.

Any news on this Andrew? I'd like to do the same. But short of this, if anyone wants to report back on a different movement swap to replace the 21j to get a higher beat, please share...

Anyine has a definitive answer on this? Have a shot DG2813 and was wondering if there is a high beat movement I can look at using.

There is no DG4813 with tall cannon pin available anymore - so there is no direct swap to an high beat movement possible.
