Yup, thats got the A7750 so full chronograph functionality my friend. Be sure to read up on how to look after that movement as they can be very delicate. There are several threads within the forums with great advice on keeping your sec@6 A7750 running ok. Manually winding it can cause problems so try not to manually wind it, but if you do need to, slowly slowly, and don't force the crown should you feel any resistance.

Cool, yes, its a beautiful country I am from the Uk originally, moved here in 2007.

Assuming this is the A7750 movement, and not the 21J fixed second hand model? The large second hand you are referring to is the chronograph hand, and parked at 12oclock, the same as the sub-dials @9 & @3 indicate the chronograph has been stopped, and reset. Your seconds hand is the hand of the sub-dial @6, this is where your second hand is. To start the chronograph you need to unscrew the crown @ 2, and push it. Press the same pusher to stop the chronograph. Then to reset the chronograph you unscrew the crown @4 and push that pusher, and all the hands will reset to 12oclock apart from your send hand in the sub-dial @6. Got a link to the watch from Andrews site so we are on the same page here?

Oh aye? How come? Girlfriend here?

Ah, got ya. Thats a good thing then.

Some of our Trusted Dealers maybe able to source reps of these. Best wait until CNY is over though.

Thats not a sticker. I just hope that the buyer don't switch the movement for an actual clone now, and keeps the ETA to himself. Some buyers can be so bloody frustrating and dishonest. I have experienced my fair share too.

If that is indeed a genuine SeaDweller Rolex insert there maybe light at the end of the tunnel my friend as they are sought after

From your other post next door, I would suggest getting the Asian movement checked out on a timegrapher, and regulate it. They are usually strong workhorses, but are a bit temperamental at times, I give you that.

Sounds like you have just been unlucky, but a check on a timegrapher, and regulation may fix it

Not familiar with the item. Is it a ring for the finger? Got a photo?

Welcome to the forums. Why do new members only post when they are not happy.? Why not share your happy experiences too. Just my 2 cent.

Looks like a Swiss ETA to me.

Thanks, and PM replied

Looks the real deal to me, but I have to confess I'm no PAM expert. Looks in pretty well worn condition, and the previous owner was obviously not afraid to get it scratched, back case too, shame.

This seems possible considering Thomas has been having to make dials from parts, which entails making the best out of what parts he has left, dials, indices etc. Photos would help.

My experience with these is poor, I paid a premium for one, which came with 4 bits, and was still ill-fitting sadly. My guess is the rep tubes are slightly different to genuine in this respect.

Welcome aboard

Welcome to the forums

I was referring to the reps, the term Swiss Rolex in the land of repdom is a myth, and is used by many scam sites to lure people in.

Welcome to the forums. I'm afraid they don't exist.

Don't worry about it, it was probably only hand wound a few turns, and this makes all the difference.
