rek001 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi all, I recently got this watch from Tonyxkf at cqout.com, advertised as a "swiss case" Seamaster chrono. I was intrigued by the description. It's supposed to be blue dial/bezel, as you can see, the blue is very dark, almost black. That doesn't bother me because I like it very much. I dunno, don't have an asian 7750 to compare, maybe this is the same case and bracelet used for the 7750 version, maybe not, but the finish of this watch is superb. There is a wave pattern on the dial face, just not visible in this pic. The chronos re-set perfect, the bracelet is super comfortable and the links taper in cross-section like the expensive ones, all in all I am delighted with this acquisition, especially for the price.

Corgi Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Pretty accurate in terms of appearance, but I think there's some kind of inconsistency with the chronograph function. The 6:00 subdial is running while the others are stopped? In reality, the 9:00 runs constantly while the 12:00 and 6:00 (and large seconds hand) remain still until started. I assume it is a quartz chrono at that price... meaning the running seconds tick? Still, its not a bad deal considering the price. I have the full-on 7750 version and its one of my favorites, though I don't wear it that often anymore. This is a great watch, wear it well!

pafre Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Is it automatic or quartz? If you got and automatic with working chrono at this price, it's a steal. Nice watch, enjoy it Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee1 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 very nice. Does he offer anymore? How long did it take to ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek001 Posted January 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Oops, forgot to say - it's Jap quartz, nice, reliable, precise. I only buy functioning chronographs, faux chronos are a real dislike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
