My insert dropped out for the second time in 18 months, just yesterday.
It happens.
You get that chime-like ring as it hits the floor.
Why not send the watch to BK and have him lume it, service it, and install a new correct-height insert into the bezel.
It's nuts that automatic knives are illegal for public sale, but a liner lock knife is almost as quick to open one-handed, and is perfectly legal.
I suppose once something is outlawed, it's almost impossible to reverse. Except liquor, I suppose ... but then you must have 99% of the Country shouting about what a stupid law you have made.
my liner lock knife. (except mine has the titanium coat blade, not black)
WM9 factory is closed. You have to wait for a used watch to be for sale from a private member.
I would look at BK's current offering Submariner, as it is also very good.
Wow! There is not a single thing wrong with this rep! It's flawless.

It bears mentioning every several months, for the newer members .. there is an area here for photos of your own watches. Look at the top of the page and see the MY WATCHBOX tab.
Click that to see all kinds of great rep photos taken by members ... you'll find a LOT of great, professional class images there.
Who knows .. you might find something you love, and have to have. Like this one.
Water resistance is on a case by case basis on **** all rep watches **** ... some fault in yours could ruin it's WR .. there is no QC, remember. Maybe the person who made ONLY your watch forgot to put in the gasket.
You see? You always have to check. Do not trust.
BRILLIANT ...

YES!! Thanks for the ideas, everyone.

The DG 4813 and DG 2813 are copies of the famous Citizen 21j movements, since you mention this.
The real Citizen movement does not hack, tho ... funny that the Chinese would clone it, and slightly improve it by adding a hacking function.
If you wanted to, you could directly replace an A21j 4813 or 2813 with a real japanese movement, but you'd lose the hack function ... oh ... and the Citizen movement is *only* low beat. No 28.8k BPH
This looks like a job for .... THE KATT !! He's a great watchsmith over on RWI. Courteous, professional and fast. Nothing but good things to say about this guy.
He does not do 7750 tho. I appreciate his honesty when he says up front that he's not qualified for those.
Interesting. The dial close-up is not that good, but it looks like a Eurotimez 2010v5 dial in a Noobfactory case.
A closer dial shot and detail of the insert triangle would tell the real truth.
It **could** be gen but the photo quality and lighting are not helping me decide.
