Ouch! Sorry to hear about your lost watches mate! :wounded:
The green sapphire crystal is indeed the only real weak spot on the Milgauss ultimate GV blah blah.. If it takes the WSO crystal without any complications then I think it would be worth the extra bucks. But unfortunately I don't know the specs of either the gen, rep or WSO crystal.
Nice to hear you had a successful first purchase!
Not surprised though since you were dealing with Trevor..
Now where's the pics? (so we know it really happened)
Edit: found your other post with proof!
This is the general rule for all 7750 movements (both Swiss/ ETA and Asian). So it has nothing to do with this particular brand or model (more than the fact that it is 7750 powered).
Edit: just double checked the product manual for my gen Oris XXL Chronograph and it says the day/ date should not be set between 20:00 and 02:00.
Sorry to hear that. If I were you I'd PM a US member of the moderating team like redwatch, freddy333 or Nanuq.. Heck, anyone in the mod team would do..
