Stephane Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Forget it. I cant't read properly Are you sure ...
GarrettP1 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Posted January 21, 2012 In for a Tricompax. I sent € 223 to her this morning for the movement plus shipping (about $296 USD). I love that movement (but not in an unnatural way) and new ones are always way over priced. I'll let you know when it lands. Garrett
w0lf Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 is tricompax eta7753 or a 7750 with a tricompax setup?
GarrettP1 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 It appears to be an ETA 7753 (from email with the seller). Actually, it would be great if it was a 7750 with a Dubois-Depraz module applied; I've been looking for one of those (at a decent price) for several years. I'll post again after it arrives. I realize how imprecise "tricompax" is, and how it's become a generic term for a triple register 9-6-3 layout in a mechanical chronograph. At that price however, I was willing to take a chance. I bought some magic beans too. Garrett
w0lf Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Gattet, if I'm hearing you right, you just bought a top grade eta7753 for 200 Euro and you are not happy
ExtraExtra Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Guys, this is an awesome deal....last time I purchased 3 of 7750 with blue screws. I have swapped one with SA already.
mrboombasteke Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 So, just contact Nathalie via email to order?

I bought some magic beans too. Garrett A Dubois-Depraz module would go on a 2824-2, it would be redundant to put it on a 7750 which is already a chronograph movt. The D-D module has running seconds at three, not at 9 like the 7750/7753s. Since it sits on top of the 2824, pusher locations are above the stem/crown axis. Gevril did the Paul Newman Daytona homage piece with the D-D module a number of years ago- big tell was the running seconds at 3! $300 for a 7753 is somewhat tempting.
GarrettP1 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 My understanding was that prior to production of the 7753 D-D made modules for Valjoux giving the subdial layout seen now on the 7753. A moonphase module was made as well. They are not common, and that was why I was looking for one. Garrett
Yannou Posted January 28, 2012 Author Report Posted January 28, 2012 So any feedbacks about those mouvements ? I will not post any other deals if it's not enough good for the Members.. I have former movements from them but just wanted to know Txs Yannou The Louchebem
GarrettP1 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 Haven't gotten mine yet. Usually takes at least 2 weeks from Europe (although I've had the odd experience of something getting here in 4 days). Garrett
spooky driver Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Me 2 Me 2 what? Did you not get the movement? Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
GarrettP1 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 I got mine; part of the delay was my fault. I Paypal'd to a misspelled address (no harm no foul...it didn't go through). Once my payment got through it took 2 weeks exactly to receive the movement. It's perfect in everyway. I haven't checked it's accuracy electronically yet, but I'll get to that eventually. I'm going to build a franken of sorts in a Glashutte rep case with a sterile dial. Garrett
Seadweller4000 Posted February 26, 2012 Report Posted February 26, 2012 Could someone provide some decent shots of the balance and possibly the eta stamps? That would be great.
