  1. Hi i just bought a swiss valjoux 7750 date ring.. white background @ 3 oclock.. and i'm looking to put it on a tag heuer watch.. i've read reviews in this board saying that both carrera chrono and link chrono are very accurate to the gen except for the dates... in the link the problem was that the date is too much to the right and problem with the tag carrera is that the date isn't big enough.. so i'm looking forward to change the date ring..

    but my question is if i put the datering on the link chrono.. would the new date now lined up properly (in the middle)? and if i put it on the carrera will it have the correct date also?

    if both are correct after changing the datewheel... which one would you think is more accurate to the gen? carrera chrono or link? thanks for the help :)

  2. It would appear that the Board has done you right...

    Maybe you could try upgrading your membership since you have all that extra surplus...

    TT

    lol yeah.. i keep thinking about that.. i would love to upgrade my membership to vip but theres only 1 concern that i have.. i myself don't own a credit card.. therefore i would have to use someone else's paypal account.. the only person that have a paypal account that i normally use is my gf's!! and she is getting really [censored] off at me wasting my money.. so i need to find a way how i can try and get this VIP membership! its really killing me because i want the vip membership! dw one day ill convince her :)

  3. As long as you want black numbers on white background and date @ 3 o'clock, this

    http://www.cousinsuk.com/default.aspx?disp...roductid=469410

    is the correct one.

    If you want date @ 4.5 o'clock, this

    http://www.cousinsuk.com/default.aspx?disp...roductid=469854

    is the correct one.

    Unable to tell whether this

    http://watchpart.co.uk/date-ring-oclock-wi...7750-p-943.html

    is @ 3 or @ 4.5 o'clock.

    And I just wonder why they call it 2556 (which is the date indicator driving wheel) rather than 2557.

    I would go with cousinsuk.

    thanks for the reply.. the cost of shipping for cousinsuk is very expensive.. so im still waiting for the answers from watchpart... as they have cheaper shipping.. anyway if they dont have the same ones then ill have to get it from watchpart!

  4. Just google ofrei and cousinsuk , the sites should come up.

    ofrei are widely regarded as asses to deal with.

    ok.. thanks for that.. i'm looking to replace my datewheel on the tag heuer carrera chrono to the correct datewheel.. but i'm confused which one it is.. can you please tell me which one they are? thanks

  5. hi i was reading Finepics' thread regarding daterings for Swiss Valjoux 7750 - 2557/1.. i read that you can get them from o.frei and also cousins.. however i don't know these people or where to contact them.. can you please tell me where i can contact these people.. or any other place where i can acquire these daterings? thanks very much :)

    i know watchparts provides these daterings.. but are they reliable? :) thanks

  6. Alright nothing to loose I suppose. I didn't consult the wife but I don't think she'll mind...I realized by doing this I'm not in most pictures and we have a lot of our daughter.

    So here's me and my girls...you even get a wrist shot in one...anyone guess the watch :)

    its a panerai? lol.. its a guess.. in another note.. heres me and my gf.. yes i need to buy her a watch.. but i don't know what to get her.. any suggestions?

  7. GeeZ armin , you said it was a "Bezel Insert" and not a whole bezel ???

    The bezel should have just snapped back on , if not it was defective from the start ...

    You will need to remove the old bezel and remove all the glue and snap it back on but it does sound like you might ruin the watch trying to get it off ..

    Any pics ??

    Zed

    ok ok the bezel insert fell off! i glued it back on.. but now the WHOLE bezel wouldnt turn.. lol must've been the glue getting inside the bezel.. lol... man im such a clown arent i.. first breitling is dead second i ruined a "perfect" yachtmaster
