Why you dont replace the golden geartrain + balance group with the genuine Unitas parts?

 

[stonesix]

Just wondering why TD can't make the same improvement when Goin made it looks so simple?

Of course I done it myself , good question , LOL .

Genuine Unitas gears we can buy are for 18000 VPH low beats aka 6497-1 , and also the balance are for 18000 VPH .
The gears are with bigger teeth compare to Gen OP movement (based in 6497-2 , not easy to buy and the price is sky high) .
The balance for 18000 is bigger than 21600 , also the shape are different .
So , if I use genuine ETA parts , it will be a low beat 6497-1 . And it will looks far away from gen 111 .

Trust me , it won't be easy .
If you know how many 6497 movements I tried and wasted .

Modded superreps with an open case back..., I bet nobody even thought, only twelve months ago, they could reach this level of accuracy. Great job Goin!

 

[inmotionnow]

Wow. Talk about gen-like!

Looks @ cousins.uk : you can buy all spare parts of a 6497-2, prices are cheap!

The balance group comes with Nivarox and good to be a chronometer.

Thanks for the infos , will check !

Is it possible for someone to list the Eta part numbers needed

Saw a scratch on the movement, can it be removed?

Without refinishing mate no, only other option would be to swop plates

Thanks Rwolf for the info
