Tag hewer grand carrera calibre 36 Problem

[ahboy]

Hi, I have a tag heuer grand carrera calibre 36. And i want to make it look genuine-ish. Btw what is the movement they use in the gen? Is it ETA? I want to buy a ETA and the gen dials, hand, glass and etc. Is it possible? Cus i don't like mine. Btw does the white color ring which we can turn, is it possible to change? Thanks

no on all of those.

Grand Carrera uses a inhouse (well bought) movement from TH/Seiko lol.

Do you know where to obtain the movement?

This I believe is not totally correct. GC36 uses El Primo Zenith movement. The other GC models I believe are some sort of ETA not 100% sure though.

More info on WUS

Can anybody post the difference between the Gen and Rep for Grand Carrera 36? preferably with pics? Thank you!

Mine looks fake-ish... Mine doesnt have chronograph, the glass crystal is very blue-ish making the dial look brown-ish or watever colour they called... Im pretty sure i bought the canal street... Cus i bought it at flea market...

The latest reps use asian 7750 mvmt and it looks perfect. Mini-review/pics here:

Yeap... Looks nice! I plan to buy one from pure time but sadly they don't comes with leather strap which what i preferred.. But do you think Tag heuer service center would sell me the leather strap? I don't think so cus that model is limited edition...

Um, probably. For about 3 or 4 hundred bucks.
Just get a nice aftermarket strap for it instead.

The strap is the easy part.
Please don't get hung up on getting gen everything on your watch. It will be very frustrating and extremely expensive.
