Donor movement for the Ronda 763

Which movement drops into a Ronda 763 case, and what has to match beyond the footprint.

No drop-in

No mechanical drop-in. The Ronda 763 is a quartz caliber; swapping it for an automatic of a similar diameter changes power source, height and hand heights, so it is a case redesign, not a drop-in.

The Ronda 763 is a battery quartz caliber at 15.30 x 18.10 mm x 2.50 mm. Replacing it like-for-like means another quartz movement of the same family and footprint, not an ETA, Sellita, Miyota or Seiko automatic.

Matching diameter and height is necessary but not sufficient. A donor is only a true drop-in when the dial-foot positions, hand-hole sizes, stem length and calendar layout also match. Two movements can share a case and still need a new dial, re-broached hands or a cut-to-length stem.
