kisomen 0 Posted August 13, 2017 Hi guys, I was looking an Omega replica, this to be precise: http://www.theonewatches.ru/index.php?route=product/product&path=378&product_id=3546 I was wondering has anyone like this? I'm interested in the movement. As it seems that it should have the same movement as this: http://www.theonewatches.ru/index.php?route=product/product&path=380&product_id=5439 I was wondering that the chrono subdials works as they should? What's Your experience/opinion/thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kisomen 0 Posted August 13, 2017 What I mean is the subdial at 3 works as on the genuine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can see a video of a similar movement modified from a 7750 here. http://www.ttw-1388.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=17547 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It also claims it's actually a coaxial escapement so I'd go the other way and assume nothing works Quote Miyota 9300/9301.... Modified Automatic Movement, Functional Co-Axial as Original!

The Gen has an In House Omega 9300 movement with a Minute Hand(Orange) and an Hour Hand(Grey) that both move counting minutes and hours. The Rep has a modified 7750 movement that simply cannot have such a complication; Only the Minute Hand(Orange) moves during the Chrono function. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kisomen 0 Posted August 14, 2017 I was thinking about buying one of this Omega, but my biggest fear, that the chrono subdial at 3 doesn't work as it should be. It would look ridiculous. I checked the Miyota movements as well, they don't offer a movement like this, but than again, I don't know how big would be the work, to modify it. That's why I'm asking...

Wriggles 12 Posted August 14, 2017 If you really think a sub dial working not exactly as gen is ridiculous then back away from reps and stick to gens. Either that or I've got a bridge I would like to sell you, I'll throw in a free Swiss AAA 1:1 exact copy replica as a bonus just for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Modding this is really simple. You buy a gen movement, case, dial, hands, crowns, crystal, tubes and stems. Replace the rep parts with the new ones, and it will work just like the gen. (bracelet may be a bit of a tell, but that's also not difficult.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kisomen 0 Posted August 14, 2017 Actually what I was thinking besides buying the original ( ), that I buy both watches, and swap the movement... it might work I think... And it's definitely cheaper... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xpletiv 16 Posted August 15, 2017 Stop right there, I can tell from this side of the planet that the sub at 3 is wayyyyyy the F off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
