Here is one from MarvellousRreplica

The hour hand is wrong, the bracelet is wrong (not riveted and clasp) and the case is wrong (non drilled lug holes). Dial is fairly accurate. 

Here is a gen from Chrono24

http://www.chrono24.com/en/rolex/ss-op-very-rare-silver-baton-dial-vintage-milgauss-1019--id4218156.htm

The bracelet is correct for this year (1970) as they did come with all of Rolex variants.

FWIW, Trusty's example is pretty close to a 27K dollar watch. The font differences and such are not going to be noticed from more than a foot away anyway. Also the dial will vary over the span of the years in production. Gen dials, last time I checked were in the 4K-5K range if you could find one available.

I say go for it and enjoy. It's a great watch.

There is always the Miyota 8215. Drops right in and no need for new hands/dial.

If you are in the US, here's where to get one.

Have you reached any resolution with your watch? I may know of someone that works only on A7750 movements.

PM me if you are still in need of repairs.

Great call GenTLe! 

Looks like the first listing, the straps can accept the deploy from OP. Very good resource you are! 

Here you go.  http://www.pf-818.com/-p-18862.html 

Not sure if this will work as the post says "for small Asian......"

Hi and welcome. Looking forward to some comments/ comparisons to how it was back than.

Thank you NW, I'm sure I will throw a few around.  I will say this, folks are actually knowledgeable about these. Kinda feel like I'm back to basics. See a post I may be able to help someone and find the issue has been solved. Steep learning curve to keep up with

Very nice brutha!  I'm going to say the one on the right is the gen.  The dial is white.

What gave it away?  The crown?   Love the GMT hand you have too...

Beauty!  Is it a cream dial or just the light?  Either way, congrats on a great pick-up!

Here's mine...just have to remember which one is the rep

Well we still do the mods cause we are all OCD crazy WIS!

That is an affliction I can come to grips with....I think.....yeah, I can, wait....yes, I am sure I can handle that... 

308 Hybrid   ETA 7753 movement, gen hands

It is great to see the quality has gone up, but the other side of the coin shows that we are paying much more for it. That is ok, I don't mind not having to do incredible mods to get the pieces close to what is, in my mind, acceptable.

Thank you for the warm welcome back Mike!  Glad to have this forum available with the experience and knowledge for all.

Best!

Thank you Camaya, but I think for those interested this is the bible of it (found this morning): http://www.awci.com/wp-content/uploads/watch-tech-guides/venus/175-Tech.pdf

Wow!  Thank you for the info. Much more in depth than what I could find. Saving it to my HD and bookmarks.

Rolexman or Rolexfinder? Rolexfinder says they have not found any 91350s but I did order a rivet bracelet at least.

Sorry, I'm thinking of two different things, Rolexfinder..

TC has one but with solid end links

Ahhh...  Forgot about that...  Rolexman may have a line on 91350 as well, MBW

TC may have what you are looking for. I don't have any experience with Yuki's bracelets.

+1 for Kenny...  Never seen a bad dial from him, always a top job

Not exactly sure what I can do to help on this one. 7750's are my favorite way to increase my blood pressure. ST-19 is something I have yet to put a screwdriver to.

Here is a parts breakdown that I think may help,

Glad to be part of the community. Been away from the scene for a few years, and anxious to jump back in. Catching up is the main objective right now. I hope to learn new things and contribute something in the process.

Best to all!

Has the issue been resolved for you yet?  As StormTrooper stated, you will need a new crown and stem. It is possible that you might need a full service on the movement, seeing as it is an A7750, which are notorious for winding/setting issues. The gear that winds the barrel is made if incredibly cheap metal that chews teeth if handwound, causing debris to enter the rest of the movement.

If you don't want to go the service route, a replacement movement is fairly cheap and available.
