Daytona II 44mm with Swiss ETA?

Recommended Posts

Luthier

Talked to Sally (salesperson), she measured the watch, and confirmed - it's 44mm. And she said it's Swiss Valjoux 7750.

My question is... as far as I know, original 7750 has seconds @9 configuration, but this one - seconds @6.

 

Here's the link to their Daytonas II. All 44mm...

Is something fishy there?

They're in HK. And they can make the watch by your specifications - dial color, brushed or polished cases, etc.

 

Maybe I have to pay them a visit?

I highly doubt they will be swiss 7750s for 270 odd usd sounds more like asian 7750 price to me, but good luck with it, let us know how your deal goes. Cheers

I doubt it too, they also have a watch with"Swiss Valjoux 7753" for $485.00 which I supect is the same as my Asian 7750 version (J &CO Epic II).

A Swiss 7753 on Ebay is about 600 USD just for the movement.

It's a shame that for $930 and Swiss ETA they couldn't even get the second hand lined up right.

Regardless swiss or not there is no point at all buying a swiss 7750 with seconds at 6 . The problem will be the same the seconds at 6 mod is only Asian and Swiss or Asian movement will have the same problems with it. It's not a faulty movement that causes the problems it's the add on of the seconds at 6

Heck no, it's one of the rare "authorized by switzerland" replicas.

Someone posted that the factories had modded the 7750 to add extra jewels to the seconds at 6 movement and make it more reliable. Any of you guys know if that worked?

 

I like the idea of a 44mm, if only Rokex did :thumbsup:
