Thanks Mickey! From perusing dealer pics...to me at least it seems the 196 has a better dial... the white dial, the hr fonts seem thinner than gen...the subdial hands on the rep pics are silver instead of black...and the spacing between the 2,4,8,10 compared to the seconds subdial, and minute subdial seem off? I'm not sure if the dealer pics are old, and some of these issues have been corrected.

anyone? anyone? which model is more accurate?

hey guys, which one if you had to choose...196 or 188? are they equally as accurate? i'm assuming a 7750 lello dw will NOT fit a eta 7753?

Actually Angus's price is better than Andrew/Josh... His $298 price includes SS bracelet and second strap. http://www.puretimewatch.com/index.php?productID=471

Definitely would love to meet up with u guys.... Unfortunately I've sold off all my collection except for 2...so I'll be taking donations at the GTG... Good food & good liquor is a must! Can't disappoint the out of towners... Actually I think LR was suppose to come up to Jersey around that time..

I like mine on this jewel of a strap that I found in my neighborhood. It looks great on my IWC 3717 as well.

No way I'd trust it unless they shot a picture of the mvmt. Based on price...I say no way that its an ETA 7750 mvmt...more likely an A7750 mvmt... Ask the vendor to shoot you a picture of the mvmt and then post it for us to see...

I was in a rush to get the pics up for you my friend.... Next wristcheck I'll get one up!

Received mine in 2 days. Here are some pics.

I think the alignment will be fine. I have this accutron that I picked up cheap on the bay...they really are a lot of watch for the money...

@avitt: thx for the link...can't wait for my new watch @AMK: thx for the link to the watch review....very cool!

This is a ridiculous deal....the cheapest I've seen them for is around $770 - $849 online. MSRP is $1495 I just picked one up....can't resist the ETA 7750...

@dluddy: that 10A is sweet....love the lume color.. @lanikai: loving the strap on that exupery

@Stephane: thank you my friend. it certainly is a looker. I had owned a Cousteau Diver before and liked the look, but I've never been keen on rubber straps, so a diver like this on bracelet is nice. I like the fact that it is 42mm as well. Recently I've been on an IWC kick...I can't get over how beautiful a modded Ingy & 3717 can be.

Just got this from UB7...perfect transaction. Its got an issue with the day wheel which I knew before purchasing....This will get an ETA 7750 installed in it today. If you fix the day wheel might as well swap the whole darn thing...right? Overkill?

Gen bezel for a standard handwound 44mm case (i.e. 111J)...same for x-tal...Gen AR'd, gen x-tal

The title says it all...calling on PAM experts...how much should I pay for this case set?

NYC you say...how can you not love this city? Korean bbq at 3 am after a night of partying...and then some Pinkberry afterward...hrmph! enough said.. the arts...the culture...the fashion...the myriad of museums...the diversity of people...and the food..ahhh...the food (can you tell i'm a complete foodie and should be 400 lbs)...meeting up with friends for drinks at a champagne bar or a rooftop...the buzz of the city is undeniable...do i ever get sick of it...hell yea! But I could never live without it...the only place that feels like home to me... not to say that i don't see the allure of the suburbs...i completely get it (i've lived in GA, CT, IN prior to moving to NYC)...but no city is like NYC...

ok...too late...its already out there...i'm a blabber mouth...

Is it alright if I post this GTG on the other forums?

@FRANK: ahhh...a man with refined taste among this motley crew...

Alternate between these 2.

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G review my friend...I wish I was resourceful enough to put something like this together... I can barely put together a book report for a Judy Blume book... I LOVE this watch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what is the link for Helen Wong's inserts?

I'm good with that...just checked google maps...its 17 miles away from me!
