Hi everyone, I have recently purchased a Rolex GMT Master 2 from another webiste not on the TD list here. It was before I found this site.
Anyway, they said it had a Japanese Miyota movement in it, but upon opening it, it looked very different. The watch body itself is fantastic, very good quality, it is just the movement I would like to replace with a better, more durable option as I have seen some have from the TD websites on here. It looks kinda small compared to some on the TD's sites.
I am not sure what the movement is, I tried attaching a picture but it wouldnt let me ;o(
I hope someone can tell me where I can find a replacement which is durable and cost efficient replacement that will easily drop in without any modification.
I've heard the A2836 is one of the better movements, but wasnt sure if this was able to handle the GMT hand? I have seen some Subs with A2836 and also the GMT Master 2, whats the difference in being able to take the GMT movement? Is there a specific 2836 I should be looking for to take the GMT movement.
Thanks in advance sorry if there are some stupid questions here, im just starting out. Should have found this site a long time ago!
