7750 in daytona rep with minute subdial stuck

[aliveandwell 0]

I have a daytona rep that works really fine but when you activate the chrono... the minute hand doesn't reacts... is it easy to repair? Any help??

No. Not easy for someone that isn't pretty experienced with watch movements.

But would be easy for a watchmaker?

A watch maker? Definitely as they make watches from scratch, maybe a watchsmith would be a better option

Daytona mounts a modified version of the 7750.

While for the standard 7750, even with some difficulties, you can find someone to look at it, not so much for the modified 7750. They are difficult to manage and easy to break (especially for the modified parts).

My suggestion is to leave like it is now, simply don't use the chrono (which by the way on a not serviced 7750 is a good thing to do).

An unadjusted 7750 has a hard enough time turning over the minute counter as it is (it's attached to the running seconds so not much power) add 2 transfer gears to the mix and...

Thank you very much!

if you are willing to spend around$250 for a service I could point you towards a couple of watchsmiths including the one who fixed and serviced my Daytona.
