Hello, 

I am looking for a dial for eta 2824 and I've seen this one that is suppose to be for NH35 but it has 4 feet on the back. 

Are those extra feet for 2824?

For the ones I currently have they are indeed NH35/2824 compatible just remove the ones you don’t need

Really? So the date position is the same between both movements? I didn't know that.

Thank you.

Movements in themselves do not have a set date or crown position. They are simply rotated in the case so that the crown goes anywhere is desired. The only part that changes is the date and day (if used) rings printed for the desired position, and a dial which is has the window cut to match.

What I meant is that the date window is in the place on the dial between eta 2824 and NH35.

Distance from center. That's good coincidence but consider that both mov.ts are the same size. Makers make it the largest possible because that allows the mov.t to be used on a larger watch without looking strange.

    • Hi all, I am Mathijs from the Netherlands and I like to restore vintage watches and sometimes customize them. Hope to learn a thing or two here about movements and hope to restore a movement one day.   Cheers 
    • Hello all, just disassembling to service, but I can’t figure out the working of the calendar work…it’s not operational the jumper and spring are ok, but the operation of the driving wheel has me at a loss. I can’t see a cam to drive anything. Is something damaged or missing? Help please!
    • Believe the relume (not a fan) was done a long time after the damage. 
    • I can only think of some chemical reaction to reluming
    • I have a little milling attachment for my WW lathe, but very rarely use it and not for wheel and pinion cutting. For that I use a small Sixis 101 milling machine. I normally do direct dividing, but sometimes have to do an odd count and use the universal index which also fits on the Sixis.   Back in the day when I didn't have a mill, I would cut gearing on my Schaublin 102. It has a universal dividing attachment which fits the back of the spindle. Both it and the one for the Sixis are 60:1 ratio, and with the set of 4  index plates I can do almost any division. When I've had to do a strange high count prime number, I print a disc with the needed division and just place the plunger on the dot. Any position error is reduced by a factor of 60 so still plenty accurate.   The machines are a mess in the pics as I'm in the process of making a batch of barrels for a wristwatch 🙃.   This is the Sixis. The head can also be placed vertically, as can the dividing spindle.   Dividing plates. The smaller ones fit another dividing spindle.   Universal divider for the Sixis. I put it together with parts from an odd Sixis spindle that takes w20 collets, like the Schaublin 102, and a dividing attachment from a Schaublin mill.     The dividing attachment for the 102. The gear fits in place of the handwheel at the back of the headstock.   And the little milling attachment for the WW lathe. I just set it on the slide rest to illustrate the size, you can see from the dust on it it really doesn't get used much. I think only when I change bearing in the head, to kiss the collet head seat (grinding wheel still in the milling attachment).
