Asian 7750 Sounds like wind up toy

[teczboi]

I'm relatively new to buying replica watches; other than the few bad imitations I picked up while in Iraq back in the early 2000s. Recently, I've begun to acquire higher quality reps. To my surprise I've found that, other than a noticeable difference in the weight, my recently purchased higher priced Asian 7750 movements sound like windup toys when I move my wrist just as the cheap replicas that were purchased during the war.

I own several gen Tags and Tissot automatics with the 7750 Swiss movement and of course they don't rattle at all. My question; is my Asian 7750 experience typical? I have no illusion about the reality of getting what i pay for; but after reading about how close to the originals reps are today I was not expecting the noticeable results I've experienced. So, I'd like to hear from the more experienced rep enthusiast's on if my Asian 7750 "rattle" is normal.

Thanks

This is normal. Search the forum for noisy rotor. There are ways to tone it down, but in general, this is normal but some come with better bearings and it is all luck of the draw.

I feel like the A7750 is a crap movement. I am however, by no means an expert, but from the reps I have owned, practically all my reps with A7750 movements have given me issues after a year or so. Granted, I've only had one of them serviced, and that specific one has never given me a problem since I got it serviced...Hmm...? What does this mean?

I am curious as to what other peoples experiences are with the A7750. Is it good? Bad? Is it a good movement for what it is? Is it necessary to have it serviced upon arrival from a dealer?
