Pugwash

Jesus has a Colombian wife? ps. Nice stuff!

Yay! Yeah, I believe the GB did set help the price on this one.

so so pretty

We all know the only FrankenMonster you've done that you'll part with is my Sub.

And here we go. No concert pics as my camera was confiscated during the show:

This would be the ideal, but it'd hurt the cost. These movements appear to me to have the absolute minimum invested to sell. Adding a service will add the cost for no cosmetic improvement. I bet Josh sells less pre-serviced subs than unserviced by a country mile.

Poor PAW!!!

So be it. Asian 7753 Copy it is.

Don't I have the same as you? I can't check for AR as mine is on its way back to China.

You know, you're respected enough to decide what this movement shall be called from hereonin. Whatever you decide to call it will be it's new name. Asian 7753? Asian 7750/3? Asian 7750@28 (3-6-9)? Pick a good name.

Less ... add-filled page:

Hmm ... I have my camera in my bag, I'll have to do a wrist shot backstage at the Mogwai concert tonight. It's only fitting I wear the PortoChrono seeing as they did two songs on the Miami Vice soundtrack.

... and I thought mine was slow!

Excellent advice.

To be honest, I'm not going Rep Hunting. Sure, I'll take a look, but I know better than to think I can find some bargains. I may, however, pop over to TTK's Watch Emporium and pick a few beauties from his mountains of stock in his massive warehouse. What? He doesn't have a warehouse? Ok, his huge multi-floored shop then. ps. Neil, I'll skype you tomorrow. I've got a Thai mobile number now. pps. Here's a pic I took last time I was over in Thailand. No watches in sight.

It is a 7750 in 7753 configuration. It's a 7750/3 or 7750@28 in 3-6-9, or whatever. We're all just making these names up as there are no official names.

AR: None, but it's not a problem on the white face. Recessed date? That's normal on the Asian 7750/3. You want to get around it, you need an ETA 7753.

Well, that's a bunch of people kicking their Tivos because you told them the result. If you have to spoil sports scores, don't do it in the post title where you can't avoid it.

I'm off to Thailand with my Seiko-on-Bob on Thursday. What I return with is a different matter.

Another modded watch, it's my Ziggified FrankenGST.

Excellent post that shows the differences between The Zigmeister and us mere mortals. I wonder if this is the movement in the new Breitling Navitimers.

A salesman in an AD used my GST to point out that the font on the Hamiltons was the same as the regular 7750 font.

Didn't think it'd be long after the quartz.

Ok, now I get it. If it's got a brass-coloured balance and no COSC number, it means you didn't buy it at Paulmart or from Sichuan.

The flaws that bug me are faux chronos I hate 'em.
