    Hello,

    As the title says, I am looking for a Zenith 2572 movement.
    Would anyone know where I could get one?

    I got my hands on a NOS case that requires this movement so I was hoping to be able to find the movement now =)

    Thank you for your help,
    Thomas

    Great, thanks!

    The one you refered to seems in bad shape, no ?
    I think I'd rather buy a movement in better condition =)

    All of those should work then?

    What is the difference between 2552 / 2562 and 2572?
    I need to take care about the color of the date, I need a silver / white one.

    It is in pretty shaky condition, to be sure. I'd be patient and find a better one.

    Each iteration of the 25x2 has improvements over the previous one. For example, the 2572PC has quickset date, the 2552PC adds a higher beat rate (28800bph), etc., etc. I'm not near my Roessler, so I couldn't give you all the details.

    Must take this rare opportunity to correct a small typo in LouS's last post. It is the 2562 that bumps up the bph from 21600 to 28800, not the 2552.

    I think you should hold out for a 2572 - not rare. Besides, someone else might have his eye on that 2562 for parts. :whistling:

    I have been monitoring Ebay for the past 3 weeks and I did not found any good matches so far.
    I know that it is not so long but I am not really patient ^^

    This 2562 looks really nice and is quite cheap at the moment.. you were also interested in it?

    Not as interested as you but I need a date wheel. Go for it... I'm not in a hurry.
