If I were you I would just buy a replacement off AliExpress and have a watchmaker fit it. ado213 is in the UK so he is the closest watchsmith who works on reps to us.
Yeah that was my plan now I have the movement confirmed - not an expenive movement to replace!
Raddave it's in an a HM2 replica - rather an old piece by now!
oh crap i thought it was a movement holder , i didnt realize it was a watch case !
thats cool as hell
haha!!!! so much confusion! It's definately a polarising watch - PM'd ado213 and ordered a movement, fingers crossed he can help out. It it was a standard watch I'd be happy to swap out the movement but with this having the gearing system for the offset dial it's better a more competant person looks at it!
