The top man .. Zigmeister .. is in Canada. I understand he's currently on holidays. He could field-strip your 7750 and service it with a blindfold on and make it run like nobody's business.

The parts in a Swiss ETA watch are only a few dollars each. The reason having Swiss ETA movements in our replicas is desirable is because they can be repaired. Why not pay to have BK fix it himself? He's in the USA. I swear it won't be 180. Write him and ask.

Watch Winders? (how should I keep this baby running?)

I can't answer that question with authority. -
Hello! Welcome to the Forum

Watch Winders? (how should I keep this baby running?)
Jkay replied to matthias's topic in General Discussion
Hand-winding an automatic watch spins the reducing gear at fantastic speeds. This can and does strip off it's teeth, especially in the 7750 and 7753 Swiss and Asian copy. Many people here with lots of watches simply allow them to run down and then wear them to get them running again when you want to use it. Some people pull the crown to hack (stop) the movement in their 7750s between uses. -
Perhaps a silly question, but you do know he can get much much more than his little area shows. Right?

5 weeks? Definitely contact the dealer and ship it back or send it to a qualified 7750 technician. Vaccum and George in the USA both can fix 7750.

Lucky man!!

I checked it out. A7750 with faux power reserve

Once you tell us your price range, we can tell you where to look.

For a 3-handed replica in stainless steel? Really. I guess there are people who will pay anything as long as they have emotional buy-in. That number makes my butt-hole sore, personally.

Sorry but...which internet replica dealers are any good?

Narikaa is based out of the UK. He is a smaller dealer (one man operation) but has years of proven honesty. He flies to Asia and hand pics his stock. Here's his email - narikaa@gmail.com And hey ... Narikaa has a famous line of 45 and 42 mm Planet Ocean A21j replicas. I think that they are 68 GBP each. -
On the main page of the Forum (the page with the live chat box at the top) if you scroll halfway down the screen you will see a list of over a dozen trusted dealers, not only of watches but watch tools, straps, and soft goods like wallets and purses. Watch Eden Precious Time Perfect Clones Trusty Time Watch International Pro-Watch Polo Pure Time ToroBravo That's a short list just off the top of my head .. even the youngest dealer here has been here for years with literally thousands of sales. You *will* get what you buy, and if it's broken when it arrives, they will take it back and fix it. (return shipment on your dime tho) - pictures of the actual replica watch in the web store - a realistic description of the watch (quartz/asian/swiss power) (sapphire/mineral crystal) - fair pricing (but not cookie cutter pricing. shop around) - QC acceptance photos upon request - conflict resolution via the Forum admins *if needed* just some of the plusses for buying from a TD Sorry you got what appears to be a $45-$50 watch .. but hey; I was ripped off the first time, too. Then I came here.

There are several talented people making reps of vintage Panerai models. You will never buy something this superior from a "dealer". Sometimes you have to buy a case from one person, the plexi crystal from another person and the dial from a 3rd person .. it's all mix and match.

If you used a personal banking debit card on a site which has turned out to be a scam .. after you receive the charge-back, tell your Bank you have lost your card! They will send you a new card with a new number. Why trust your bank debit card number with a scammer in China?

Welcome to the forum! I'm sure if you ask in the Other Brands area with a topic mentioning Oris that someone will give you some ideas.

Are you in North America? WBK is one of the only (the only??) trusted dealers in North America. He only carries Asian 21j watches but that is your price range, and he stands behind his goods. And you save 50$ shipping fee -
Vaccum is a very experienced modder in Florida, USA. He runs the Vac's Modification Shop sub-forum here. He is the go-to guy in the USA for lume, but he also performs service and AR coatings.

If a watch is not starting easily, the beat could need adjusting or it could need service.

More hyperbole. Maybe you are a postman or a track star. Many people are not. For instance: I can easily keep a watch wound with my movements during the day. My wife is an exec in the insurance industry and she absolutely can not keep a watch wound simply with her movements. So if you disagree, how about providing some examples or at least some facts and not just repeating "no."

absolutely

I went all-out and got the "genuine" decorated Sellita movement, as the Gen has. Vac's Mod Shop is in Florida.
