fredy.g Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Hi folks, I just wanted to share this. I visited Domi last week and I bought from him his new Daytona project It is 6263 Paul Newman - Swiss 7750 modified to 727 - Gen Pushers - Plexi Glass made in Germany (excellent quality) A beautiful watch and I'm very happy with it.
Valty Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 This is indeed a very nice DW - it's kinda rare to see gen P302 pushers on DW case ! Just a side note, it's 7750 to 7760 (manual winding) - and not 727 Wear it well !
fredy.g Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 Hi,Thanks for the explanation. He mentioned it but I forgot the movement type, but he used a Swiss 7750 and modified it...
fredy.g Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 My apologies.I've just confirmed the 7750 was modify to a 7753 manual.
Valty Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 7750 was modify to a 7753 manual. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but manual 7750 is 7760, I believe 7753 is 7750 w/ date complication Just for your knowledge
alligoat Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Ok R, you're wrong, the 7753 is the 3-6-9 configuration and the 7750 is 6-9-12. Both can have a date and the 7750 can have a day feature also.I can't remember what the 7760 is but of course all of these are based on the 7750- maybe like you say the 7760 is manual.There's also a 7765 and a 7751

There's also a 7765 and a 7751 Thanks for the explaination mate !!! :-) I always forget there is multiple layouts on the 7750 based movements ! About the 7760 I always seen Spinmaster talk about his "conversion" between 7750 to 7760 - so I suppose it's correct
alligoat Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Here's an article from Chuck Maddox http://www.chronomaddox.com/valjoux_7750_engine.html Like you say, the 7760 is the manual wind version of the 7750. This article also refers to a 'tricompax' 7750 which is the layout also referred to as a 7753.. At any rate, the nice thing about fredy.g's watch is that it has a Swiss engine in it and not the asian 7750!
dieselpower Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Nice. Wear it well and enjoy. For the record it's not a Newman. Daytona world is complicated. Read read and read more.
