  1. Very interesting if this does take gen parts. It would make a great base. What are the differences between the swiss and asian eta?
  2. Thanks Freddy. I thought that but as you know I do not know much.
  3. If the automatic winding mechanism is removed from a 7750 to be used in a 6263 is the movement still at a high risk of damage when wound daily? If so what parts are at risk and how hard is it to replace these parts?
  4. Thanks R How much of a difference is there between the Asian 7750 and the Gen Swisss ETA 7750?
  5. The DW 6263's have 7750 movements with asymmetrical pushers. Is this movement any different from a normal 7750 movement? Would an eta 7750 work or does it have to be a specific model?
  6. What is the best way to get in touch with yukiwatch? On their website it says click on the FAQ and leave a message but I see no such option. I tried emailing them but got no reply.
  7. Blue prince is yours a 7750 rotor removed?
  8. I love my spinmaster 6263. I just wondered how a watch with an Asian 7750 (7760 now) will hold up if it is worn and wound daily. Also, I find that after 40 winds each day the movement runs just over 24 hours. Is this about right?
  9. Are the V72 DW dials better than the 7750 DW dials? Besides the spacing of course.
  10. Freddy did you say you were expecting a Daytona dial from Yuki? I am anxious to hear a report.
  11. Anyone ever had any issues shipping from U.S. to China. My DW 6263 needs a new movement. DW will replace it for free or I can pay $120 to have one shipped to me. Of course then I have to pay someone to put it in. What do you think? Potential customs issue shipping out of the U.S.?
  12. I need to replace the movement of one of my DW 6263 watches. It is a Asian 7750 with the rotor removed. Who would have a this movement for sale?
  13. Freddy does Yuki sell dials that fit a 7750 or only a dial that has correct spacing?
  14. Very nice watch. I love my Spinmaster Daytona as well.
  15. Thanks JoJo. That was very informative!
  16. BK has the best modern sub with the WM9 v2. The MBW subs take gen parts so they are a good watch to wear and upgrade as you go. Have you looked at the Spinmaster 7760 6263? It is a great watch. The only drawback is that the subdial spacing is a little off. You can add a gen crystal, crown and band later if you like.
  17. 1680 MBW if you had not said sub I would suggest a 6263.
  18. My dad worked for O.G. Wilson's in the 70's. This is from the 1976 catalog. From the spacing of the pushers on the Wakmann [H] and possibly [J]. I would say it is a Valjoux 72 inside. Check out the price!
  19. I feel I am being pulled more and more to a vintage sea dwellers.....
  20. Very nice. did you get the box from Josh as well?
  21. Good to see the twins out on a nice night! They seem more mature now.
  22. Hard to say.......... This is after market and not gen.
  23. Did you make that Mark? The spinmaster 7750 route is the best for the money. Second would be the spinmaster route with a V72 if he still does them. Then you would not have to put up with all of the headaches of assembling and having people tell you that the movement does not fit and on and on and on....... There are many posts here about people stressed while their 6263 is at the watchmaker. Some are in that situation right now.
  24. Thanks everyone for your comments. I really appreciate them. I really enjoy this watch. What is a good source for a better bezel?
  25. Here is Spin's 6239: Spinmaster 6239 I remember a thread where he had given a dial a vintage look with a cream dial. I think it was coolfire's watch but I am not sure.
