miyota 8215 or nh35?
Is there a huge difference between the two movements, since the Miyota seems cheaper than the NH35? If so, please tell me. Thank you ❤️

Both are great automatic movements! The NH35 is generally my preference, but the Miyota 8215 is a solid budget alternative. Performance is similar. For watch building, the biggest difference is compatibility. You'll need different cases, dials, and hands designed for each movement. NH35 parts are generally much easier to find, especially on AliExpress, but you’ll definitely be able to find parts for the Miyota.

NH35 replacement movement
I am looking for a low cost nh35 and nh34 movement , the current cost is out of control. I switch to vk63 movement chrono - cheaper- I tried a Chinese knock off movement but the stem release is a joke. I trying to learn the craft as a future thing to do if and when I retire. I very glad to have found this site , somebody to discuss watch making, any project suggestions.

Hey Michael! Miyota movements are a solid alternative in most cases. The Miyota 8215 is a great alternative for about half the price. Just make sure to buy parts specifically for this movement.

Tape
Evening all. I would like to put coloured film inside a casio watch. I intend using two different colours. What tape do you use to secure the film in place. Thanks

I would guess that eBay would be your best bet. Anyone else here based in India know of good local suppliers?
