lanikai Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 I am contemplating getting a 104 ... since some members are working to get the correct date wheel and i do believe they will achieve this before the makers do.. So with that said i am looking at the Asian Valjoux 7750b1 movement... tried to upload the file but I guess I don't have the rank yet... I have had some bad luck with the 7750 movements in chrono's ... but i think i read ziggy's info .. the Valjoux movmt ... to be one of the better ones available .. or am i wrong? input please
sssurfer Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 So far my [current and temporary] conclusion is that there are good and bad 7750 out there, but even the bad ones should work good enough on a non-chrono and single-subdial model like the 104. Possibly after getting serviced. This is what appened to me with my 050, 104's small brother.
FWATCH Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 I have a 104 with 7750. It's been OK so far. Hope it stays that way.

Thanks sssurfer... figured i would wait to hear your input... you validated what i was assuming ... since there is no chrono mod on this it should be better than the chrono version..... I may go ahead and get the 104 or the 220 .. i have confidence in you and Lello beating the makers to the punch on the wheel...
