RWG Technical Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 dear ziggy, would it be possible the gen valjoux 7750 to modify for a gmt function ???? thanks for your knowledge. cheers rolli The ETA 7754 is a GMT model...so you could probably get the 7754 parts, and install them onto a basic 7750 and turn it into a GMT model. It would probably be very expensive and difficult to do as who knows if 7754 parts are available. Easier to buy a 7754 if it's available.

RG dear ziggy, thanks for your reply. the aim is, the new pam gmt models ( like pam252 northpole ) have the cheap asia movt, and i like to swap the movement. my watchsmith could swap the movement in the pam24. that was easy. and this watch is now superb. i would have this same result with the gmt function in the pam252 northpole gmt. you say 7754. has this movt the same measures like the 7750 ??? thanks again rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I was wondering the same thing in the context of whether it might be possible to buy the Northpole or 88 and retain the Asian parts and put them on a Swiss 7750 as that is readily available. Then you have a new "original movement" PAM. I suspect the only way to find out is to try it. Thst is one I am willing to give a try as I can always use the 7750 straight on in a sub or other old movement 7750. I think the first issue is whether the movement in the Northpole takes the same size hands as the gen 7750. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolli Posted January 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 77XX all are the same size. 7753, 7754 even 7760 - although this one has a missing rotor as it is handwound. yes, thanks for help guys. many pams got a new gen 7750 or unitas. but to swap a gmt movt, thats new for me. i will try to order this 7754. i hope i have luck. cheers rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I will have a look at my movement supply list and see if a 7754 is listed...and if it is, I will let you know the price. RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolli Posted January 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 rolli - take casre about the hands sizes, the new Asian 7750 has a different hand size.... thanks ziggy, yes, repaustria, thank you, i know. my watchsmith know this too. he changed the subdial hand tubes. that was a little bit more work. he could it clench or stick in. thanks again rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RG dear ziggy, yes, of course. i've ordered two movements. one for the pam252 and the other for the pam89 anthracite dial, here i will change the polish case to a titanium case. my distributor said, this movement is very new in the serie product line of eta. before was this only for a special order and only for watch factories. the request is extreme high. thats why the delivery time is longer. with a gen gmt movement is a gmt rep more interesting. again, thanks for your information, ziggy. cheers rolli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
