Looks nice! Stock photos showcase the improvement.

But then on second thought, if I change the complete rotor (mainly for the engraved plate) and the complete balance, I can have something better than this with not much higher price. At least with a gen rotor and balance.

Ok but why when I can buy a gen 4130 for 4k?

Also this means the Chinese will soon be doing it too

Can't wait.

Where did you see a gen 4130 for 4k? Genuine question

Every watch parts site that sells used movements.

Latest I saw was tswisst, 2018 movement for 4300€

Granted i'm not the most knowledgable on this topic, but I've never seen one for less than 7-8K euros.

You do understand pricing online do you not?

A 116520 is on chrono for 19-20k, in dealer groups it comes up for 13-14k

Yes I do but even with that kept in mind I've never seen anything close to 4K, where did you see it?

Don't take it personally, like I said it's a genuine question.

Never seen a gen 4130 so cheap but tbf i never looked for one. The few frankens with gen 4130 i saw here had a much higher cost in their price break down. But anyways this ACE release is a 4131.

No worries no offense taken

As I said for example tswisst

Rolex Daytona Werk 4130 – T SWISS T – The Missing Piece

www.tswisst.de

This was 4300€ I believe, was posted earlier this year
Has no history though, so could be from 2007

I do agree on the 6k for a replacement movement that is brand new, fresh and never used like this one

Rolex 4130 (Chrono Daytona)

Rolex Ersatzteile 4130 Chr0nograph

www.uhrenersatzteile.com

But those are non-used, fresh from Rolex HQ.

Used ones go for a lot cheaper.

Gotcha, I mean there's always going to be crazy deals like that, I think it would be fair to say that a 4130 movement typically goes for ALOT more than that though no?

As for the ACE4131, I mirror the thoughts from above, a gen balance assembly and rotor on a DD4131 seems preferable to me.
But if they can perfectly mimic all engravings, the balance and the chronoenergy escape, seems like a decent idea!

That movement is missing a few pieces, is that how it comes from Rolex?

Thanks for sending these two sites, they have some good prices on stuff!

Look at that, all this time I thought you were British because of your teeth. You're just east German. Nice.

What is the target market for a straight movement? Will factories be building watches around them or are people buying bare movements and putting them in clean/etc 126500 reps?
