It's the same that our dealers stock, only difference is that it comes with an ETA styled datewheel, better than the standard one, but sitll not accurate to the gen

I haven't seen it at any of our dealers. The only 6-9-12 layout that I have seen is the fighters and navi world. The dial and caseback on this model is different from those . . .

However, I still think this is a rep based on the lack of AR.

Looks like a nice rep - Even the DW is accurate. Just wondering if any of our dealers carry it?

The GMT modified 7750 has not only more gears, but a different shaped top plate than a normal 7750. The only way your going to get the recessed datewheel fixed, is to install a non-GMT top plate on the movement. Once you do this, there will be a thickness difference between the GMT and non GMT movement (the new movement will be thinner) and your stem is not going to line up with the case hole...how much of a difference and is it going to be a problem, don't know.

As well, everything else goes out of alignment, case spacer ring, etc...you can't change one item, without affecting many more...there are always gives and takes when you start modifying parts.

Looks like there is no easy way around the datewheel issue then. Thanks for the info The Zigmeister.

I have searched the form to see if there is a solution to address this problem and it appears that there is not. However, there is a member that removed the GMT gears and thus solved the recessed datewheel problem.

My question is this: If you remove the ability to adjust the GMT hand via the crown, but left the hand attached (just fixed to +8hrs for example), would this also solve the recessed datewheel issue? Or do you need to remove all of the GMT related gears?

Thanks for your input.

Hi everyone,

I am considering the Navi World from Josh. Has anyone ordered this from him? How does it compare to the gen? Who is the best dealer to buy the World from?

If anyone could post pictures of a rep Navi World juxtaposed with a gen I would really really appreciate it. Thanks!

So what's the verdict on these? Are they as good as they sound? Any problems with the movement?

I'll get it tested and post my results. Thanks for the input!

My friend has one, and the case back had no gasket/O-ring installed. Also the crown does not screw into a tube, like most watches. This is one rep I would have to highly doubt its waterproofness.

Cheers

I haven't taken any chances with it but I would like to hear if anyone knows if it is or not. I figured the oushers may be a source of a leak in this watch . . .
