Wich movement is the "better" choice

[TAG Heuer]

Planning to buy a Vintage Daytona 6263. What movement would be a "better" choice? 7750 or Venus Handwind. And is there a big difference?

I know for sure that the 7750 is more tricky then handwind or am i wrong?

Can you even find a 6263 with the 7750 movement these days? DW used to have them, but he's long gone. My experience has been that the a7750 can be a problem and it's tough to get them worked on, so I'd go for the Venus and hope for the best.

I had the same thoughts, until i saw this one

Looks like it doesn't have the correct asymmetrical pushers characteristic of the true V-72 Daytonas. Just depends on how critical that feature is for you.

There you have a big point. Didn't even notice that. I go for the Handwind. Thanks
