Hi guys,
I’m asking everyone for a little help.
I have an old case for a Rolex 5513.
From the research i’ve done, I believe this case was fitted with 1520 or 1530 calibers.
From what I know, they were both 28.5 mm and 5.75 mm thick, only the frequency of oscillation changes
CALIBRO 1530 Ø 28,50mm ht. 5,75mm 18000 a/h
CALIBRO 1520 Ø 28,50mm ht. 5,75mm 19800 a/h

Now my "madness\question" is this. Recovering similar calibers I do not say is impossible but requires astronomical amounts.
So i would like to know if it's possible to use a 3135, which has the same diameter but a height of 6mm.
What do you think?
Someone can help me?
Thank you so much

3135 has a high beat movement. In addition, the stem height will also be different.
