Seconds @ 9

[bingoofsweden]

Yes, running seconds @ 9 (subdial) is what you find when looking at a watch with the 7750 movement.

Now some of you might be laughing but here is my question, and that's why I'm still a novice at movements.

Just to make it easy to explain this is what I know so far,

for example

Hublot Black Magic uses a A7750 (with seconds a subdial)

Hublot Big Bang King uses a A7750 (with seconds at center)

Is it possible to configure the 7750 (ETA and ASIAN) to have seconds at subdial or standard center dial (non-chronograph).

Also I know there exist several variations of the 7750.

I got aware of this when I acquired my Oris Carlos Coste Limited Edition, and thought it would be much nicer to have a big seconds counter instead of the tiny at 3 o'clock (subdial),

but still having the date window and stopwatch.

Thanks

I'm not sure I fully understood your question. Yes you can run seconds on the center post of a 7750 but that gear is actually the chrono seconds.

What kind of setup are you looking for? If you want the seconds running on center post, where would the chrono seconds run?

The date wheel is totally independent from the chrono so that's not an issue.

Thanx txcollector

To clarify...

Yes I would like to have seconds running at center post as standard instead of small seconds (subdial), the watch would feel more alive with that setup.

I would easily trade the stopwatch functionality for that feature.

I'm thinkin of getting the Hublot Big Bang King Ice Bang (Black Dial) 48mm just because it has the big seconds at center post.

My other watch PAM 111H with the small seconds is perfectly designed as is, but as with the Oris Carlos Coste it would be sweet changing so "primary" seconds was at center post.

it's all a question of personal preference but functionally if you have a chrono you need the large hand so you can time things.

Who actually check seconds when you look at your watch? Only when you are timing things. If you have a chrono that's how you do it.
