redwatch Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Just browsing Josh's site and came across a really great looking Franck Muller Casablanca Chrono using a gen Valjoux 7753 engine. It's kind of pricey at $878.00, but it's quite a looker. Anyone picked this one up yet? Pictures? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newton78 Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 I have this baby in PVD on rubber with Asian 7750 and must say that the quality of these FM reps is outstanding, I would say on par with the latest Tag Heuer reps. Also in terms of accuracy. Was at an AD and checked the gen of this watch and must say that I could not really spot a flaw. Would be interesting what other watches come from the same factory.

redwatch Posted August 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Does the version with the A7750 have the usual sunken DW issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mike Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Does the version with the A7750 have the usual sunken DW issue? Going for that "Rookie of the year" again aren't you with questions like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted August 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Well I figured it can't hurt to ask.....of course I realize that its wishful thinking on my part, but you never know. Maybe a miracle has happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newton78 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 The issue with the sunkec datewheel is there, but I think due to the design with the silver ring it's not really noticeable compared to other reps like the BReitlings etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflyingdutchman Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 I only happily have this A7750 version; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottosaurus Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Definitely liking the FM Casablanca Chrono. I've heard that on other FM models that they have a tendency to goof up the number fonts, particularly the 1's. Probably best to get a pic of the rep before you buy it.

minuterepeater Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Unrelated question - but Dutchy, you two rose gold pieces above are stunning! Haven't bought a rose gold in more than seven years due to problems with discoloration over time (even during storage). How is the rose gold holding up these days?? Thanks to all.

maxman Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 I only happily have this A7750 version; I agree that because of the ring around the date window the sdw Is not that noticable. Now that there making a Asian 7753 well that changes everything now dosent It? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
