EbolaVirus Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Maybe I should be polite and ask what type of movement this is. Sent from my Guide using the Sub-Etha Net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EbolaVirus Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 So that's what it SHOULD look like... Thanks StormTrooper! Sent from my Guide using the Sub-Etha Net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
folex Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 The picture you showed is a Rep. 7750 Movement with modded plates to make it look like a P9000. As StormTooper has mentioned, the gen movement is different, built differently and the tell is the placement of the wheel. The biggest tell is the pinkish jewel, where the gen has a darker pink. Just notice also the detail around the gen movement where that jewel is located and you can see a vast difference between the gen and the rep. Best of luck, hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EbolaVirus Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 These are pics of a very close friend's watch. He told me it was gen. I'm inclined to think he believes it is gen, because I witnessed the emotional roller coaster of waiting for delivery and the happiness once it arrived. Also, he treats it very differently to his reps (other reps). Do do I tell him and break his heart or let it go. I doubt he will ever sell it. I'm not sure what he is going to be able to do about it now anyway... Sent from my Guide using the Sub-Etha Net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EbolaVirus Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Also, the escape wheel seems to be not touching any other part, is not central on its jewel and seems to be oddly shaped. It may not be obvious in the pictures. Sent from my Guide using the Sub-Etha Net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 It´s definitely the A7750 decorated to look as a P9000 with a fake escapement wheel. Here 2 pics of the "composite" titanium one: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 http://imageshack.com/i/nh92196340j That's an annoying story for your friend. I hope he can try to sort it out . It's an interesting caseback. I've not seen that number on a rep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
