homecd Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 I have read all the posts here. Many of you have fantastic reps and did superb jobs for modifications. Since I don't have any skills to modify the watch, just prefer to buy a proven rep. I am considering this: http://www.jpc8118.com/iw02011-spitfire-chrono-laureus-ssle-blue-a7750-chronos-28800b-p-7474.html Any of you has experience with this? I am open to buy other models as well. I really love to have my first IWC. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Jkay Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Any Asian 7750 powered chrono watch should be professionally serviced as soon as you get it, to help it last a long time and to not die an untimely death. They are very complicated mechanical movements
homecd Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Posted October 26, 2009 Many thanks!! I may consider swiss movement then.

homecd Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Posted October 26, 2009 Hi,Lani They look great. Nice pics. Did you use the site, jpc8118.com? I also want to buy the same straps you have.
trailboss Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Many thanks!! I may consider swiss movement then. Very rare to get a Swiss MVT in a chrono mate. The MVT alone is worth 400 to 800 dollars depending on grade. The A7750 is a great MVT it just needs some TLC to ensure it's longevity. Just steer clear of any with the seconds at 6 such as the daytonas. They are utter crap. Col.
