Interesting sub dial spacing closer to the hour markers than quartz.

Seconds hand in this pic has moved from it's "frozen" position in the first 2 pics........the options narrow.

I've since put it on a dark brown (chocolate) strap which really changes it.

I really love the 3714 but I'm beginning to hate the 7750 movement, Why, because I cant get what I want! That watch with a white face and a reliable movement. I'm new but it sounds like the 7750 would be ok if it were not for the relocation of the seconds at 6. Am I beginning to understand. or are there more issues with the 7750.

Ahhhh Lightgeek don't be a pain in the ass. You don't even really like watches. So, tell me. I want one really bad.

Lightgeek has the only true answer and he is not sharing.

Just buy one.

 

It's a rep. All reps are a gamble, this one maybe slightly more than most but it's not that bad that you should deprive yourself. Actually buy more than one then you have a spare. I have three of them in different colours now.

 

Another tip I learnt in this hobby. Never buy any rep unless you can afford to throw the money away. Then when you have a great watch it's a bonus.

Hahah! True!

 

I have a 3714 V3 with over 1000 hours of wrist time and it still works perfectly, nothnig was done to it. I just took JSJ's approach and went ahead and bought one.... Turns out I was lucky! Now I am pushing my luck with a second unit that is in the mail from china :)

Question: do you put it on a watch winder the times you aren't wearing it? Also over night? I ask to find out the reason for some 3714 clones work perfect and others don't. Possibly the not working 7750-with-sec@6 are not in continuous work but are stopped from time to time?!?

I stop the movement by pulling the crown every night so it does not wear itself for nothing. So far so good.
