    NSNO. Its sad when people who have no interest in soccer / football buys a club and runs it to the ground. I am a blue and has been frustrated by the Toffees lack of ambition in the transfer market but I wouldn't trade it for the [censored] that Man U and Liverpool are going through right now.... at least from a financial point of view

    Yup. Condition and brand plays a more significant role in the price. When I first started hunting for 7734s earlier this year. I was snapping off any 7734 that was below a certain price, not paying attention to the totalisers. I ended up with 03 x 30 min watch and 01 x 45min watch. I didn't notice the difference until about 1 month ago, about 1 or 2 weeks before DW officially released the case sets.

    But what I have noticed that since the news of the release, none of the 45 min totalisers went for less than USD250. I doubt that the price will go down any lower than USD300. As with any used watch (esp those from the 70s), it's always good to have a full service upon arrival, bearing in mind that this this will not be a cheap project.The case set itself will cost around USD500.00. The cost of servicing the movt + additional parts will give you peace of mind for the next 2 to 3 years.

    I suppose that it all depends on how you approach this build.

    1. The 45 minute subdial is a totaliser. The problem exists when you run chrono, the hand might not always incicate the time correctly when 30 min is used. I don't know whether it will reset probably but it should... I think. the 45 min totalisers will not come cheap now but get a cheap 30min and convert. I have one of those as a spare.

    This case-set is built for the 7734 only.

    This baby has to be one of my most expensive builds. It has the correct 45 min totaliser, gen 24-700 crown,marsupilami tube and a T128. Datewheel is not correct though. It has the roulette black/red numerals. I suppose I can always wear this on even days...lol. Anyone with a spare all black datewheel???

    You can still get the movt off the bay but be prepared to pay anything between 400 and 600 USD for the correct 45 min totaliser. The demand for these 7734s shot through the roof when DW released this watch.

    Cheers
