  1. i was curious about that as well, started to peak an interest towards the blue SMP. what is wrong with this one? [link]http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/seamaster-300m-chronometer-gents-blue/[/link] can anyone recommend the best place to go get one?
  2. Tried opening up for repairs but was not able to salvage the movement. I had an old alpha movement I was trying to move it in there but couldn't get the date wheel to align. Currently sitting on my desk without a movement inside. Anybody got any ideas on where I can get a replacement movement with a black date wheel? Not sure what happened with the movement, out of all the watches I had, never had one go out like this before. The qc pics had +4/ day which is awesome, but after 24 hours when it arrived, it was going mins fast per hour. I have regulated other watches and was not able to do this one though.
  3. Thanks for that. Still eagerly awaiting a quick fix for my gmt ii as well.
  4. Day 1....with my PO Not sure what happened, but the QC pics had +7sec/24 hours, It is currently running very fast, +6 mins within 1 hour and randomly stopping. Moving onto another watch... looks like a lost cause. Everything else looks pretty, but no point in wearing a watch that isnt keeping time. I had a Carrera A7750 which has kept very consistent time at +4/24 hours everyday (manually regulated). I tried opening it up and regulating and no matter how far i turn the tab, its still way too fast. Not sure if any of you guys have any recommendations.
  5. Just received my watch from Joshua The watch so far is perfect, looks amazing, love the instant date change etc... Two main concerns i need help with. 1. When changing the date, it seems like it is not catching, is that a common problem? Is there a special trick to getting it to work? I have forwarded time and no, I am not around midnight when changing the date. an ideas? if maybe people can tell me this is normal, then i wont keep trying to play with it. 2. In the pic above, the mushroom part for the clasp to click onto, i have heard there are problems with this part breaking off, I am trying to be careful by closing and opening while holding the side buttons. Judging by my pics above, does it look like it has been fixed or do i still need to be careful?
  6. I just got a 5th gen PO, what can I do from preventing this from happening to me?
  7. I just recently acquired my Tag Carrera A7750 Couldn't be happier. Sure it has it minor flaws, but doesn't bother me too much. Chapter rings slightly larger than gen etc like other have discussed. The watch was running about +40/day. I have a lot of faith in asian movements. I have been playing all weekend with my amateur tools. After all weekend I managed to get it to +6 sec/day. Just wanted to share my success story. Now I can feel better knowing that I don't have to keep adjusting the time every 3 days. I will see how it does over the next couple of days. This is the 2nd watch i have ever regulated, my first was an Alpha GMT that was -50sec/day. Just synced with it with an atomic clock and watched the second diff over a couple hours. What stories do you guys have?
  8. Does the Asian 4813 hack or hand wind? Is it a good beater movement? I couldn't resist and ordered one.
  9. Where can we get silver colored replacement screws for the blue a7750 screws?
  10. Although the gap sits ugly the overall design of the endlink helps to hide the thickness of the watch by adding somewhat of a step down. Or maybe it is just my opinion.
  11. I personally like the prototype best, but not sure how to survive with second tick marks. Sometimes do a lot of quick timing and each tick mark counts, on the other hand makes for a much cleaner dial.
  12. New to the group, glad i found this forum where i can come out with my watch.
