This is just too weird for me!

Andrew almost always sends the tracking info first. It doesn't mean that he has shipped yet. I'll bet you that your QC pics will be coming soon!

My first rep was a Breitling Skyland that I bought in 2008 and it has a A7750 in it. It ran perfectly for 5 years! I recently serviced it myself and I'm sure it'll run perfectly for the next 5 years.
Yes there can be issues with the movement, depending on how's it's assembled. But most problems are due to dirty, dry movements. Properly serviced, it's a solid, reliable movement.
If I had my eye on a watch that had a A7750; I'd still get it.

Very nice job. What treatment did you use that damaged the pearl?
I was using a Dremel buffing wheel and went across it and dug it out.

Yeah i can get the wd40 but not that rock n roll Extreme stuff wd40 leaves a greasy surface no matter how Much you try to get it all you cant
Secret ingredient in WD40 is fish oil! Designed by rocket engineers to keep rocket and missile parts from corroding. Water Displacement (WD) 40; the fortieth sample. It'll always leave a residue.

Nice! It takes it to a new level!

From Andrew back in January. I absolutely love this piece. Got ETA movement version and NEVER have to adjust the time.
I second this one as well! It's a great watch! I put mine on a Gen Breitling Super Ocean strap.
Like Mike said, you want to stay away from the 7750 unless you can get it serviced when it goes tango uniform.

Ahhhh..... Yes! I didn't look close enough at the pics.Broken top pivot on the escape wheel, look at the picture guys
You need a new escape wheel.

It's the pallet fork. I've repaired this before. Be sure it's seated properly and the stones are engaging the escapement. Replace the fork if it's not engaging. One of the stones could've recessed too much.

Ha! How many L-1 maneuvers can you do in one flight without crapping your pants?
-
Yeah it would!

Shock capability of mechanical wrist watches > 5,000 g that are the highest g force a watch can withstand dont know about a Quartz a F16 can make 9 g's without even trying maybe something there
Yes, but what are the effects on the timing (bph) of a mechanical after a series of consecutive high g maneuvers?
-
What's happening when you where the watch without manually winding it? Does it run down or does it continue to run beyond 48 hours?
