Good morning all.
My favourite yep (yes my number 1) has failed. Perhaps it’s had more use as it’s an absolute beaut! Poor girl.
Here she is with Gen… Nothing in it!
Basically I noticed the wind start to feel a bit tight and yesterday I felt a distinct change it’s felt like the spring had snapped off similar.
Now this watch is a A2824 (hurrah) and I therefore understand a replacement movement is a simple drop in? I’m pretty handy and have worked on some of my watches before so I’m happy to remove the movement, hands and dial.
Am I correct in thinking that I can simply buy a 2824 (perhaps a gen ETA) and everything will simply transfer across? I also assume my ARF datewheel will just transfer across?
Any advice appreciated? Especially a link to a suitable legit ETA 2824 in the uk if they’re available.
Cheers
