Hi guys , I started a search and it seems that the DG2813 is a good clone of the Myota 8215.

I hope that this info would be helpful

I don't know if all the hands sizes are the same. Most likely it's a direct swap but I've never personally done it.

Maybe a 21j expert will come along and tell us.

Hi, some time ago I took note of this, in case I would need it. Than stumbled on a thread saying the hands will not swap over etc. and ppl having to buy the DG2813 after buying the Myota. Cannot confirm, but if needed will swap a DG2813 for a DG2813, just to be on the safe side.

The actual DG model of the 2813 with the "circle M" in the balance area is a decent enough movement on its own. Plus the 2813 hacks whereas the Miyota does not.

Hand swappibility, im not sure about

It is not a direct swap.

HAND SIZES:
Miyota 8215 100/152/17
DG2813 100/150/17
DG4813 100/152/17

MOVEMENT and STEM HEIGHT:
Miyota 8215 5.67mm - 2.5mm
DG2813 5.45mm - 2.5mm
DG4813 4.6mm - 1.8mm

Also the dial feet position seem to be different:
Miyota 8215 around "25" and "50
DG2813 around "28" and "54"
DG4813 around "25" and "55"

Additionally, date wheels are not interchangable as far as I remember.
