polexpete Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi guys, some of you may have been following my quest for a fix to fit a gen ETA 7750 or 7753 into a rep navi case. You can read the results here .... http://www.rwgforum....t-for-gen-etas/ So i finally have the finished article. Many thanks to The Zigmeister for putting it all together ... specs are: - Gen ETA 7753 with gen rotor - Gen blue arabic dial - Gen burgundy croc strap with gen deployment - Custom double AR by Regalmann - The rest is stock cartel rep with case mods to fit movement obvious omission is a gen Breitling datewheel ... if anyone has for a 7753 ...? here we go Cheers for looking P.

polexpete Posted September 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 is this gen dial and rep slide rule ring?... was the 7753 movement modded to make it tri-compax?... Cheers Rob .... yes gen dial had to be shaved down to fit rep slidewheel which doesn't line up all the way round of course... Nope movement is as it came ... 3 registers Cheers P.

andreww Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Work of art Pete! You and Rob have really outdone yourselves on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronoluvvv Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 no [censored], really ? That sucks but heck I'm still tempted to do it I think on the gen you gotta set the time back & forth over 12 o'clock to get the DW to move forward Keep wearing it There is an alternative way ... i read somewhere ...

krpster Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Looks great Pete! A shame the bezel doesn't line up. However, I have had a slide rule bezel watch for 15 years and have NEVER used it once. Just nice decoration. So I guess just keep it in some random location and you will never notice Wear it well, she is a beauty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
