vric Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) Very great info Rob! Thanks! So in fact exchanging an ICW GST movement for Swiss is not possible without getting new hands, right? For what I understand, any "new" Asian 7750 swap would be impossible without getting new hands.

Pugwash Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 For what I understand, any "new" Asian 7750 swap would be impossible without getting new hands. From what I understand, you can take the cogs with the hands from the Asian to the Swiss. There have been so many direct 7750 swaps that I'd be surprised if it were impossible.

Chronus Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Didn't Kruzer00 get an ETA 7750 in his IWC GST Chrono by The Zigmeister? What was done ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been so many direct 7750 swaps that I'd be surprised if it were impossible. That is possible, not sure if they all fit, some didnt' some did...depends on the model and the gear...cant' remember which ones did and did not... RG Didn't Kruzer00 get an ETA 7750 in his IWC GST Chrono by Ziggy? What was done ? Nothing but a straight swap, dial and hands swapped over to the new movement, done deal...

RWG Technical Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 RG Nothing but a straight swap, dial and hands swapped over to the new movement, done deal... RG in order for the small seconds hand to fit was it broached? thanks, j BUMP for the Daytona sizes posted and info updated. No broaching required, the ETA and the OLD Asian are identical, see the opening post... RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techd Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Hey...I know The Zigmeister edited his post but does anybody know what the hand sizes are for the asian 7750 in the IWC Portuguese? I could REALLY use the hand sizes!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I'm not quite sure why The Zigmeister keeps editing posts and removing information after its been posted. Anyway I kept a copy so here it is. (original text by The Zigmeisterzumba) Genuine ETA 7750 all variants (all) Hour 2.00mm Minute 1.20mm Center Seconds 0.25mm Subdials 0.17mm Old Asian 7750 version all variants(21,600 BPH) Hour 2.00mm Minute 1.20mm Center Seconds 0.25mm Subdials 0.17mm New Asian 7750 (28,800 BPH) Normal ones - NOT the Daytona model (don't have one to measure) Hour 2.00mm Minute 1.20mm Center Seconds 0.20mm Subdial 0.20mm Also note on the New 7750, the center seconds post, is below the top of the minute hand tube. On all other versions of the 7750, the center seconds post is about 1mm above the minute hand tube, not below it. Therefore the center seconds hand on the new 7750's, has an extra long tube on it, to make up this height difference. So not only is the hand smaller in diameter, it's longer as well...
