Another problem with A7750

Recommended Posts

Heisenberg

I've got another problem with an A7750, this time a Top Gun V3. The damage occurred during shipping as the QC pics were fine. The problems are:

 

The day of the week wheel is off position.

The chrono only runs until around the 9 position and then jams.

The chrono hand is off position.

 

I haven't worn it but it kept running for a few days itself after I got it so I think most of the watch is working fine. Is this all easily fixed or is better just to return it? I mailed Wiz but just realised he has gone away for a few days. Is there someone in the UK that can help?

That's very unlucky, I would be gutted....

 

I was lucky I got the Rolex Daytona 7750 and had no problems with the movement, the only problem it had was when I threw it at somebody haha...

 

Hope you get it sorted fella

Not Good :(

Not sure what watch I should get really, I am thinking maybe stay away from the 7750 just incase.

oh, the rep assemblers.

The rep daywheel probably wasn't installed correctly and popped off

The chrono seconds hand might be loose on the pinion.

The center seconds has a small wire that trips the chronograph minute hand, it needs to be adjusted.

The first things could be done by yourself.. But the adjusting, don't know? Is it easy to do Chris?

It's difficult enough that ETA publishes the spec and then says 'if it doesn't work, replace it.'

The day wheel does turn by the way so does that still mean its popped off?
