Mate, half the folk here won't be able to see those as they are not members at Da Geek.
Sea-Gull MVTs are easy enough to come by, where in the world are you?

Im in Sweden (europe).
do you have any idea about what st25xx I got? or how I can find out?
and where I can get it? i've been looking but havnt found any.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't remember of a ST25 with date at 3.

Oke, now we can see them.
The ST-25 is a movement with double-bridged balance so that's the first one, the second is your every day hand wind clone. You won't get it with the Panerai engraving tho so you would need to get the stickers from somewhere or change the back plates. Same with the rotor on the ST-25, you will need to swap that onto the new MVT. The clone you can buy anywhere, the Sea-Gull will came from CousinsUK who will most likely have the handwind in stock as well.

The first one is a 2530. Like the Chief said, you can get it from CousinsUK.
The second one can also be found at CousinsUK under the name "3600".

Considering top specification is a perpetual calendar with day, date, month, moonphase and 4-year cycle anything is possible Wiz, they do a dozen different variations on that MVT.

I know, I was saying this because I looked at the sea gull movments caatlogue again last week, and I couldn't remember any st25 with date at 3. Mostly fancy stufs.

Answer is simple: they still produce it but it's not in the catalogue anymore.

 

[peppter]

the movements I've found on cousinsuk are

china ty2530
and
china 3600 pocket watch movement (based on UT 6497)

on the china ty2530 is the "datebackground" white insted of black.

does any other site got this movements?

 

[Wiz]

It's the same movement. The date disc is probably just an overlay that you'll need to take from the old movement and glue onto the new one.
