Josh states that he ships the watch on 9th of feb!

A couple of people have commented on other forums about the crown sitting too close to the case. I don't see this as such a big deal. There have been much worse flaws on previous pams

The write up on Josh's site practically the same as the 177 so guess it's the hublot factory, So the Lume should be great!

This is brilliant! Thank you so much for submitting this! Like many other watches, this looks so much better compared to the crappy dealer website watermarked pictures! Congrats on a great looking watch!

Just ordered one. This will be my first pam rep ever! I've checked the panerai section of this site everyday for almost a year and this is the one I've ended up ordering. Rather an impulse buy, but from what others have said about the 177 and 219 I'm happy to spend a little over $200 for this.

Thanks for the pics. Any chance of a wrist shot??

I don't believe this! I have only had my Santos 100 for a couple of days! I waited months and months and months for the chrono with A7753 to come out but couldn't wait any longer! As soon as this is available in two tone I'll be all over this! (Dependant on how good it is!)

Finally got my santos two tone. Pics and small review coming soon!

Yeah you're right. I've made a few and I'm sure I'll post a few more bloopers too!

+1

I heard this too but I spoke with Pure Time and was told that the maker of the Panerai with A7753 has exclusive use of the movement right now so it will not be out too soon

Thanks guys, appreciate the help. I haven't received the watch yet but I want the gen strap ready and waiting!

Does anyone know where I could source an OEM brown leather strap for this watch? I'm looking for recommendations. Thanks guys

I hope so. I've spent the last 6 months waiting for an A7753 santos chrono but there doesn't seem to be any idea when it will be released. I can't wait any longer! Regular santos it is!

Thanks guys! I've ordered the two tone of this watch. I got fed up of a A7753 santos chrono. I'll post pics when I get it

Angus has just emailed to say this is a low beat A7750.

Can anyone here tell if this is an A7753 movement? http://puretimewatch.com/published/publicdata/PTWWEBASYST/attachments/SC/products_pictures/CARTIER-2010-12-03-01-08_enl.jpg

Well spotted! I can't wait for the info to come up. I was told it was aiming for a late November release so this very well may be it! Thanks for posting, I had a non chrono santos 100 in my checkout box just about to make payment and I thought, I'll check the thread just once more. Glad I did!

That's more info than I've got from the dealers. Thanks Mickey, I'll go for the santos 100.

Yeah you're right! Apologies, didn't mean to mislead anyone. What do you guys think? Wait for the Cartier santos chronograph with A7753 which is coming "soon" or Just get the santos 100 ultimate?

Appreciate the quick reply! I really want a new watch so I may just have to pull the trigger on the news santos 100 two tone.

Hi guys I have been trying to get hold of a Cartier Santos Chrono two tone with swiss 7753 for about 8 months and had no luck. I have heard for a while that a new version of this watch is soon to be released with an Asian 7753. Does anyone have any more info on this? All I know is it should be out 'soon' which I have been told for the past 4 months. Any help will be much appreciated. I'm desperate to get a new watch and have come so close to getting the new non chrono santos but the chrono with non recessed date is the one I really, really want. Thanks guys

No good reps available. Don't waste your time on this one.

I don't think it does but no biggie, not many would spot this

Looks ok to me
