Looking for professional movement advice

Hello, I'm a newbie but am really hoping somebody could help with a project I'm working on.

I need to source a manual-wind movement (preferably Miyota or Seagull - at the very least with a recognized brand name) from the far east. I've been looking for weeks and have come up with a few options, but only one that fits the bill - and I don't think its manufactured anymore. The spec I'm searching for is:


  • Hand-wind (no auto element)
  • Hour, minute, second hand
  • No sub dials
  • Date
  • Slim (<4mm if possible)

These are the movements I've currently found:

Miyota 8260 - perfect, but unsure if still manufactured (http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&0&2uswk&Miyota_8260)
ST3600 - no date and unwanted additional dial
Miyota 6T33 - no date
DG-2833 - no recognized brand name / unsure of quality

If anyone with experience in this area could offer some advice I would be truly grateful.

Thank you for your time.
