Estaban Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 I've got about 9 months on my 196. The watch keeps PERFECT time. Gets worn a couple of times per week and I never touch the chronos. Everyone says it's a crap shoot. Maybe it's time for me to head to Vegas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estaban Posted July 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 My chronos work perfectly as well, I just don't use them. I would say we've all had pretty good luck with our 7750s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archibald Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 17 months on my 196 from Scottie, which I wore today in fact. Unserviced: 3 days to 3 months. Serviced: keeping COSC time after 6 mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailadams Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Unserviced: 3 days to 3 months. Serviced: keeping COSC time after 6 mo. The one I sent out for service to a respected forum member 12 months ago I have not got back yet, so I don't have a good scientific comparison. Too patient am I, perhaps?

Watchmeister Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 I have had good luck with the ones which don't use the chrono function. All of mine with the chrono function almost immediately suffered sub-dial hand slippage or other maladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too patient am I, perhaps? HUH?? You are more than "too patient" my man. Don't forget to remind him, cuz I think he forgot he still have your watch. 12 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on Neil...that is a chrono avenger...not super avenger. You should know better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcher Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Daytona modified is doing well so far and the longest time I've owned a rep. I think it's christmas time when I got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estaban Posted July 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 I'm pretty sure Neil's watch is a Super Avenger with an fantasy dial. Neil mentioned this to me at one point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 3 weeks Time kept ticking but the chrono broke (see elsewhere for details), but I was deliberately giving them some stick. Now repaired and fully serviced so we shall see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
