  1. This is either a gen or the date wheel has been replaced (which I doubt as I have not been able to find any replacement Asian 7750 datewheels on the web) as the one on the brushed bezel model as azgjav states is bloody awful.
  2. Thanks RG, that makes things a lot clearer
  3. I tried looking on Ofrei, they do not have the hands for the model I need.
  4. Thanks for the info... In that case does anyone know of a source for replacement 7750B1 's ?
  5. Does anyone know if the hands from the new Asian 7750b1 28k bph will be directly tranferable across to a Swiss 7750 ? (i.e they have same diameter posts)
  6. Well that would explain why they were so damn tight ..... I guess the moral of the story is "if in doubt, ask" and if you don't get an answer then you're probably asking the wrong question
  7. On this bracelet all but two of the pins have screws only at one end (there are two connecting the bracelet to the clasp that look like they have two screwed ends, but they were so tight I couldn't make them both turn). The other end of the tube is slightly enlarged and grooved to make a very tight interference fit into the link, which makes it very, very tight.
  8. I have just received my BB from TTK and ran into the same problem as you. Once I had unscrewed the small screw at one end and tried to push the tube out (nearly breaking my nylon pin remover in the process) I figured that the tubes inside the links were fitted using an interference fit, albeit a damn tight one. So I unscrewed the end of the pin remover, turned the link on end, placed it into the tube end, lightly tapped it with a pin hammer and lo and behold the tube gradually eased out. I would recommend that you remove the screws from both of the tubes as a certain amount of pressure is applied to the other one during this process and as the screws are not exactly made of high grade steel they could possibly snap. Of course the other way is to take it to your local friendly watchsmith
