I believe you may be able to fit a new NH36 movement with an aftermarket dial, hands and stem but using a 63xx or 61xx movement you can keep the original dial and hands intact. You can actually fit a Seiko quartz 754x movement to this case as well which would be a reliable daily beater. Regards Bruce
