About this product
The NH38A sits in the same family as the NH35 but moves the datewheel and uses a different date position, which is exactly why orders go wrong. Before buying, open the caseback or check the model's specification for the date window location and the hand sizes the new movement expects; swapping a dial made for NH35 onto an NH38A leaves the date floating in the wrong place. The movement hacks and hand-winds like its siblings and suits direct replacement in compatible divers and field watches. Measure your existing hands or match them to the specification, and confirm the stem height before the swap.
