Using A Eta 2836-2 For A Gmt Application

[zarama]

Hello guys, brand new to the forum but have been following Mark on his YouTube channel for some time.  I have a old watch that i love that came with a 2836 with a GMT 24 hour hand on it.  Long story short i dropped it and wanted to repair it.  I had a parted out 2824 movement on hand that i would use for spares so to tore it done to see if I would have any luck.  Sadly the movement was too far gone and since it was a cheap Chinese clone i decided it was not worth repairing.  I good a good deal on a new ETA 2835-2 movement that has both the day and date feature and wanted to know if its possible to swap over some of the parts to the new movement and have it work with the GMT feature.

 

Thanks so much in advance.

Yes, it is indeed possible to use an ETA 2836-2, or 2834-2 movement, and transfer across the Chinese GMT parts to it, and have a functional GMT ETA Movement.
