Purchased A Genuine Tudor 7750 Movement And Dial

[Guest chronomat123]

Franken Tudor Chrono is officially in the works.

Ok so I bought a brand new geniune Tudor v.7750 movement with dial and crown.

I have a 7750 rep Daytona, so I am assuming that this movement will fit in the rep case, no problem-- right? I'm gonna start next weekend, still planning everything out, as I really love my Daytona and am not sure I want to rip it apart: If anyone has a swiss/asian 7750 replica Daytona that's broken, please let me know, because all I really need is a case and crystal. I'd happily buy this off of you.

Looks like I'm gonna need a gen crown tube. Gen caseback would be a plus, but it would be hard to find. Oh, and I'll need to have a date bubble glued on the my rep crystal for the date. Really hoping the hands from my rep will fit, too.

Oh, and I need to drill lug holes, as for some reason the solid endlink Tudor Chronos have lugholes.

:) This will be cool.

So... this:

with a cyclops, new tube, case refinishing & lugholes drilled, and new non-SEL bracelet... will look like this:

Thanks, guys.

Ubi-- you inspired me to give this a stab. Consider this the little brother (though less genuine) to your ElPrimero Daytona :-)

I like the idea of a Tudor chrono project... Not exactly common to see this model frankensteined....
