Tag Caliber 17 - double check for gen/rep

Recommended Posts

bloon

Can the forum help me double check this model? I don't want to deal with a replica on eBay but based on what I see, the watch is a gen - mainly because of no recessed date and doesn't look like an A7750 movement. But could someone with better knowledge of the piece chime in please?

Planning to have it polished and re-packaged as a birthday present for my uncle so it would suck big time it was a fugazi

It looks okay to me..... But it's always a gamble to pick up watches off the bay.

It is :( I offloaded a few gen watches recently and I was worried about PP chargebacks/complaints. Some people can be real scumbags for a even 500 bucks let alone 1K!

Movement picture looks correct for a caliber 17, however, the fact that the chronograph seconds hand is running constantly makes me concerned.  I'd ask for a picture of the watch with the chronograph zeroed out and not running.
