thank you for your information.
I am curious to know more about this new vr3135 and especially to know more about its reliability but if gen parts did not fit, it is the same problem as the sa3135 (trash when they are broken).
with the sh3135 and despite the problems of reliability, in case of problem it can be repaired with gen parts.

I imagined a movement more reliable than the sh3135 on which it is easy to install a Gen Dw and could be repaired in case of problems with gen parts.

Are the numbers on the VR3135 date disc as crisp and correct as the ARF V2 version?

The numbers are better than the ARF and Noob but still not gen. I’d consider it passable but it decided to change my DWO to gen anyway.

Did you found any problem in date change or date positioning during this time?

VR3135 takes gen autowind assembly. I have already done so on 2 watches.

Hello to ALL,
I need some help, please!!

I recently bought a VR3135 (Chinese)But screwed up (broke) the Seconds Wheel shaft trying to force the Hand...
I have tried to replace with genuine, but don't even goes in all the way...
Tried with a 3035 gen wheel, no luck either...
It seems Chinese do not sell this particular part for it's movements.
Anyone could please help me find a seconds wheel for my VR3135?
Really appreciate it!!

Thanks

Raul

Hello All,
Great work timto1388!!
Now, for your info, the Seconds Wheel on the VR3135 or 3135-360 is NOT compatible to genuine part.
The Gen 3135 wheel shaft, have three(3) downstep levels, while the VR replica have only two levels.

So, it will not fit.

I have been searching for the VR type wheel, no luck.

The ARF seconds wheel will fit the VR movement, at least for the GMT movements. I think it's a safe bet for the straight 3135s as well. I would try an SA3135 seconds wheel also, should be interchangeable and there are plenty of those dead movements around, haha.

Thanks KJ!
But honestly, am lost there...
Could you point a link where I could get the Seconds Wheel?
And Nope, the genuine will not fit.
The 3035 will not fit.

You'll have to scavenge one from a dead SH3135 or SH3186 or try one from an SA3135.
