Hi guys I just recieved a watch I`ve been wanting for a long time and when it turned up in a M2M sale on RWI, brand spanking new never worn for $ 90 incl.free shipping from Singapore I just jumped in and got it!

It really lives up to my hopes so Im a happy camper now after getting hold of this one....on to some pics

It is a beautiful watch for sure,I do prefer the two-tone model,

something that is very clear when I look in my watchbox there are quite a few TT watches there

The @6 dial seems to be indeed a 24h indicator (alongside with the sun-moon indicator) according to your pics.

But still can't get my head around the other subdials ! :woo:

Yeah you are correct there mon ami @ 6 is a 24h indicator

but what that weird @ 9 chrono does prob. needs some rocketscientist to figure out, and the one @12 no clue there either,

the pusher at 10 moves the year forward and the 8 pusher moves the @9 chrono but makes no sense

anyway nothing that bothers me the overall look of this watch is amazing and thats all that matters in my book

From what I heard this is supposed to have gen function? Including moonphase and not just day/night?

should be a 7753 so a direct swap should be possible.

I added one to my collection a few weeks ago. With a 7751 rep movement.

Needless to say, it is amazing. The only point I'm unhappy with, is the moonphase. The rep makers did not bother to put in a shiny moon wheel, but went for a matte one.

Nevertheless: the ETA Part is like 20$ in the bay and I will order one if this goes to service. I'm too scared to do this myself as there are just too many hands. Swapping the wheel only will come at around 60$.

So if you want to have a near perfect rep order this one and swap in a correct Moon-wheel. Thats about 90$ for this and a decent leather strap (mine was 40$, a gen Sinn strap)

I went straight to a boutique and couldn't really spot many differences to the gen. I heard some complaints about the font of the date wheels. But these parts are again just 20$ each off the bay so I couldn't care less and will maybe change them too, if its gonna bug me.

The only thing I coulnd't really compare are the hands. I guess these ones are just painted, not heat blued. But it will be near impossible to order these hands somewhere.

Thanks for making this post. I have the same watch and am bothered by the moon phase as well. I will search the bay but might have to pm you if I can't find a shiny replacement. The location of Swiss made it slightly different than gen but otherwise I love this watch also

Actually I had my watchsmith look them up for me.

The one on the bay has slight damage to it, and the other one moons with faces.
