One answer; Dont buy swiss. Even trusted dealers don't know what the hell they are selling movement wise. Save a hassle and a penny or two, and only pay for what -most likely is- your gonna get. I know you go long way back Alli, you know the drill, This is for our dear (noobie) readers out there.

Actually Seiko did the DSSD before Rolex did, Rolex felt it could'nd be left behind and repped Seiko.

A7750. The thing will work just as well (if correctly serviced) as the ETA. Were are talking replica watches here. Save money, take your wife out to a nice dinner. Good luck!

I need one of those gold daytonas In fact i think i need two!

The pics are too low res to conclude anything.

Considering the pics i'd say its a Rolex wristwatch. Congrats!

This would also bug me, but i have seen same phenomenon on genuine watches. Just a wrong pick out of the parts bin i guess... The crooked 15 however would bug me more.

If your story is based on facts, then it is not a case of impatience. Keep the preasure on, and if things are getting worse, out the dealer (after 2 weeks as of today i'd say). Good luck!

Correct, that is the so called mbw set. I used to buy sets from George (greece George), but back in 2007 he replied he no longer has them. Got one set left, but not sure i want to part with it.

heheh the movement running on rupees is kinda questionable

I think its time to stop making useless topics to promote something that obviously is in low demand. Come on man, how many topics your gonna need for it to reach the amazing figure of 21 usd

Now we're talking Dems, Hes quiet lately, last visit was 31st of may. How is the fellow doing?

Agreed i would not buy from this seller, the datewheel with the spaced 3 and 0 is kinda questionable. The case however is genuine. Another pic: genuine 16014 case 75139xx serial.

Heres a pic of my 16013 franken: Got 4 160xx frankens all have the little bulge around the tube area, though how pronaunced thay are vary on each case.

Case looks fine.

Have to agree with watcher, own two of the TT wm9 v3 based subs, and they both differ on quite a large number of aspects. Bezel feels different when turned, the finisch of the crown guards differs, also the end-link/lugs differ just to name a few.

For best response, mail river directly.

Check the rolex section, Watcher posted his WM9 with gen bracelet, although a V1 if i remember correctly. The bracelet will compliment the watch.

Does the blue version also have the sunburst effect dial? Always looked a bit dull to me.

Looks like its 7750 based, this one could easily be repped.

this is kinda funny... but its quite common in the world that what yesterday was accepted as a fact, is plain wrong today... Back in the days we lived on a flat pancake planet
