Concerns about 3878-03

[xxl17]

Really love this but have some concerns. Been searching a lot and see that there are concerns with the 7750 with seconds at 6. Looking for some advice. Is it such a problem that you would steer clear? Also how is the gold plating? Is it going to rub off? Look cheap? Thanks.

The 7750 has also big problems with the sec@6 in this watch. It's risky. But he big flaws: date window at wrong position, date wheel wrong color and recessed, subdial background circles too thick - sorry, not my watch!

I have one of these, it is a new Secs@6 mod, which if executed properly should be better, but the mod is of very poor quality, the gears are the wrong size and don't mesh correctly and its packed with grease, mine is a month old and i have had to remove the gears and freeze the secs@6.

 

It started to stop randomly which was the grease, i cleaned this then it was jumping the small seconds hand around due to a sloppy gear train, very sloppy. 

 

If they work on this it may be a viable solution just not yet.

Thanks for the photos. Good illustrations.

Thanks for the pictures. Still a poor solution. The result will always be a recessed date wheel. Not my watch, sorry.
