ubiquitous Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Big date... 7753... I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Nice watch. That being said, not much can be said about the company, as I could not find much information on it, except for a website of the manufacturer. Looks like it also has a Dubois-Depraz module installed as well (guessing DD 14000?) for use of the big date. Check out the Revue Thommen 16085. It has a similar layout.

yellomen Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Nice watch... i has one or two vintage Michel herbelin watches with 7734/7733 movements. Quite nice watches with decent finish. This however is a nice new model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new & improved osteopath Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Dont know much about the company, however, 1400 is not much more than the movement with the added big date module is worth- sounds reasonable to me. -O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm going to pick this up, if only because the design reminds me a little of my Lange reps and because I have never seen another flyback chrono for less than triple that price. If these people can make money selling 7753's w/ 2 DD modules (one for the big date and another for the flyback, I assume) for $1900, it kind of sheds interesting light on the profit margins involved on watches like the PAM 212, eh?
