Curious on how different it will be.

Old movement and no AR are only differences mentioned...hmm...

[Mickey Padge]

True, it is great for a Swiss movement drop in maybe

Hmm...perhaps an opportunity to get rotor engravings right after all.

The old 7750 has more or less disappeared in recent reps. Do you think it is the same "beta" (unreliable ?) one or a new version ?

[Chronus]

Most probably unused batches still lying around... it will pretty sure be the old 7750 - makes no sense to build a new one with 21.600bph just for the HBB.

I hope you're right, I prefer the knowledge of having an ETA in the watch

So, they're just out (a RG version unfortunately missing). The datefont looks strange. Otherwise it seems just as promised. Mmm... I am very hesitant.

So its the old Asian movement - GREAT!!

Easy to use Swiss ETA 7750 (with a few mods of course)

anybody interested in another group buy?

Im in for a GB. it has been sometime since I've looked into it, anyone care to chime in on what it takes to swap an eta?

Im going to get the HBB lite and swap for a Swiss ETA 7750.

The Zigmeister has a step by step guide as to how to do it in his watch repair guide.

Heres the link The Zigmeisters guide to swapping an Asian 7750 (3,6,9) ala HBB to Swiss ETA 7750

I would be in for a swiss 7750 GB as soon as i can find someone to swap it for me?

Can someone in the US do this? how much does it cost to swap the movement?

The Zigmeister can do this, not sure how much he will charge.
