World Traveller Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I like the Genuine Tag Chrono best, can you post a bigger picture of that, I'd love to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahchard Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I thought the daytona with 3 and 9 subdials centred on the watch was supposed to have running seconds at 9, and the newer (01) daytonas had the 3 and 9 subdials slightly above centre and seconds at 6? Correct me if I am wrong... I also thought the zenith daytona movement was only for seconds at 9??? I am confused... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giorgio Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 bluefakes.com zenith 31 jewel movement running seconds @ 6 for a little over $300 I would have guessed. That's the "Italian" version of the modified El Primero, right? I'd love to see pictures of that movement, can you take the back off and post some shots?

UB7 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Unfortunatly I dont have the right tools to pry the back off check out www.bluefakes.com they have 2 versions of the daytona, 1 with swiss movement for $1250 and the zenith 31 jewel for $300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giorgio Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Sorry to break it to you UB7, but there is no Zenith movement in your Daytona, it's a chinese movement. The Zenith movement is very expensive, and would have the seconds at 9 o'clock. I'm actually surprised you even got a functioning watch from that place. I thought their "Zenith" watches were faux chronos and the "Swiss" were asian 7750 copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB7 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) Why would they advertise zenith 31 jewel movement and give you somthing else? Doesnt make sense they are an extremely reputable vendor and get many reccomendations amoungst the rep community. I highly doubt that its anything but zenith 31 jewel because the movement is extremely smooth, much smoother than both my DJ and DD which have asian ETA (not exactly sure), and the second hand sweeps much smoother than my other 2 rolex's Edited September 1, 2007 by UB7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB7 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) is there a safe way to pry the back off without the neccesary tools? that way we can see for sure...Also do andrews daytonas have 'thin' or 'fat' hands? and does he do COD? Edited September 1, 2007 by UB7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giorgio Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I'm pretty sure nobody here does COD. I don't know why they picked zenith, probably because that's what was in Daytonas before rolex made their own movement. But if it were a Zenith, then that is Swiss. So how would they have a Swiss option above that? The back of the daytona (all rolex oyster cases) screws off. You don't pry it open, you unscrew it. A lot of people here without caseback openers use dishwashing gloves to grip the caseback and unscrew it. Usually, the backs weren't put on properly to begin with, so you can sometimes force it open even by holding the case and pushing in opposite directions with your thumb.

jfreeman420 Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Rep Rolex Daytona secs@6 (and it works perfectly) with zenith 31 jewel movement Can you explain this? The subdial spacing isn't that of a sec@6 daytona. Did you install a zenith movement in this or did the dealer you bought it from tell you that? Where was it bought? You can contact andrew from his website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahchard Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I just used the both palms of my hand and unscrewed the caseback of my last daytona. And giorgio is right, there is no zenith movement with seconds at 6... Giorgio, I actually think this IS a faux chronograph model... because of the subdial spacing... I don't believe the seconds are at 6... I think it is the main second hand, and the 3 subdials are probably the day, month and 24 hour... I might be wrong though... UB7... I would be interested to find our whch rep community highly recommended bluefakes to you, as far as i know it is a scam site... Don't worry... you got here and you will learn a lot on this forum... start by upgrading to VIP to support the forum and it gets better!!! Andrew's daytona will be much much better than the one you have now... do read up on the daytona movements though... some members have had problems with it... although mine worked perfect! Just don't play with the chrono's immediately after u receive the watch or you will mess up the hand alignment... make sure you fully wind the watch before you play with chrono's... Good Luck!
