chronochef Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Which movement is the better choice? The handwind with the non working sub dial at 6 o'clock or the auto 7750 movement with working sub dials. Thanks to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesn089 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 If you are talking mystery movement vs. V7750 modified to handwound 7760, definitely go for the V7750, MM will break eventually and will then be impossible to fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dieselpower Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) Personally I would go for the 7750 then have a watchsmith take out the rotor/auto wind stuff and also remove the hacking assembly then you end up with a manual wind non-hacking movement which apart from the sub-dial spacing is exactly what the gen functioned like.

cc33 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Or get one from dw, he sells the 7750 one but better quality dial wise. In the 300$ range. He has been MIA for a while but has been slowly getting back on his feet. Just sent me 2 of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesels suggestions sound great, don't know that I'll be up for the challenge. I have seen many a daytona on the forums here, is DW the main supplier for everyone?

cc33 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Yes, It's watch.david@gmail.com There is a very long story concerning dw which you can read up on. In short he was the main source of above average a7750 dials cases and complete watches.. they were priced well and if sent to spinmaster in singapore, for servicing, will last a very long time. He kind of ran off owing people some parts and money and I'm not sure if he has taken any steps to rectify any of that yet but he is still taking orders. He has sent me and a few others watches recently so I wouldn't be too concerned about getting what you order. I will stand by him for now, seems like he's getting back on his feet and honestly there isn't any other source for this stuff he was and is it.. the dial on the a7750 that you provided a link for, is not good at all. Dw's dials are far far better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
