yodap Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 Hi all! I just have the question, that could we swap the modded A7750 (secs at 3, big date) in the Bentley 6.75 for an ETA 2892 (secs at 3, big date also) which powers the real thing? I asked this in the movement review section by "A7750 secs @ 3 by The Zigmeister" but my post was always deleted!? Thanks for your help! (And sorry for opening a new topic, but i had no other choice )
b16a2 Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 No, the case and dial will fit differently
yodap Posted August 16, 2008 Author Report Posted August 16, 2008 No, the case and dial will fit differently It's a pity... But i think the dial would be okay, cause it's the same as the original. But anyway, can I put a swiss movt. in my 6.75? Thanks!
RWG Technical Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 The only time you can install an ETA 7750 is if the watch is a true 7750 layout. That is seconds at 9, 12 hour at 6, and 30 minute timer at 12. RG

Thanks for your answer, but the watch uses like i mentioned the secs at 3, big date layout: This is the ETA 2892 layout, isn't it? The real thing is powered by the Breitling caliber B44: Specifications Caliber: Breitling 44 Base Movement: ETA 2892 Power Reserve: 42 Hours Complications: Big Date, Chronograph
yodap Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Posted August 28, 2008 up... sorry for upping but i wanna put the same movt in my watch what powers the real thing... please somebody answer... Thanks, and sorry once more for upping... Greetz.
LordRasta Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 I wouldn't be surprised if Breitling uses the 2892 as a base and modifies the movement.
yodap Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Posted September 2, 2008 Yes, you're right unfortunately... The 2892 doesn't have a chrono function even... Yes, you're right unfortunately... The 2892 doesn't have a chrono function even...
FxrAndy Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 it uses a chrono modual added to it with the big date added to that, i expect you could get it all eventualy but you probably could buy 2 new watches for the price
slickdick Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 The modular design makes the pushers to sit not on same line as the crown. Swapping 7750 with 2892+chrono module is not going to work.
