ricardmg Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hi to all! finally I do a review... The protagonists are: Montblanc Timewalker Chrono-7753, purchased to Ryan less than a month ago. OstriX SupremE, brandy brown genuine ostrich strap selfmade (didymoStrapS) Well, before this Timewalker, I already had the previous version 7750 Chrono. In the new version with 7753 movement, the datewheel is much closer to the dial, while not completely sunk as all 7750 chronos with datewheel at 4.30. Also takes a pretty decent AR (green), resembling to GEN, which gives a much more 'credible' than the previous 7720 version without AR. The subdials are somewhat sunken on the dial than the previous version. My impression is that this dial is 'stuck' to the GEN, not yet having found no significant difference. Regarding the case, is much better finished, especially in the 'Montblanc stars' is in the 4 handles. The backside is identical to the previous one, having corrected the 4810 501 number in the rotor to 4810 502. The movement is very fine, and finally the date change button at 10... 'works'!! yeahhh!! They have also added some lume, nothing spectacular (like the GEN, which is neither) but at least something has, unlike the previous version was not wearing ... I bought this watch with steel bracelet, which gives you a breathtaking majesty when you take it, although I've done a strap to dress as you can see in the pics. The strap is my new creation, the Supreme OstriX, brandy brown genuine ostrich. Just have to say that is my favorite strap and... I'll not sell it! Here are the pics ... Thanks for looking!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade01 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 In love with this watch, and your added watch band tops it off. Where can I find more information about this stunner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martijnp Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Great (first) review of a stunning watch! From the first I saw the Montblanc Timewalker I really liked it, this review make me more like the watch. Definitely on my wish list now!

billyfras Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I can attest to the awesomeness of this watch. Purchased it some months back and immediately my love for it was justified. Unfortunately, due to the substandard materials used to make Asian movements, a pinion broke while MD2020 was servicing it a couple months ago. He's been trying to find a replacement pinion for a couple months now with no success. At this point, I miss it so much I'm thinking about just having him send it back as is... That's if my next update (whenever I get one) doesn't sound more hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
If you see Kay Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I really need to find a dealer that has the non chrono version in stock. Not quite warmed up to chronos yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felipe_zx9r Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I also have this watch and I love it. The 7753 Mov works beautifully with pusher @10. I purchased an extra strap and when I went to change it...... Well I have no clue how to remove the original strap. I have some star tools but I dont think thats the way. Does anyone know how to remove the strap? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elconquistador Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 The stars are decorative. It uses spring bars like every other watch. Because the rep strap is stiff, getting a tool in there is tough.Same at the buckle end, springbar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felipe_zx9r Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Springbar!! Please tell me your kidding. There is no room to even get a tool between my strap and bar. Any suggestions? What do you use ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elconquistador Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Not kidding. I have 2 of the 7753s and had one 7750 version before it.Compress the strap a little against one lug and use a spring bar tool with a curved end.The new strap you put in will obviously be much easier on and off because it will not be nearly as inflexible. It can't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felipe_zx9r Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Thx for the reply.... This watch really looks 1:1 I get stopped all the time with people wanting to know what kind.Have a good night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
