ScottDy 0 Posted October 12, 2010 Hi to all, I'm fairly new to replica watches and just recently purchased my first replica (prior to finding this forum, unfortunately). I bought a Swiss Rolex Daytona replica from hireplicawatches.com (they are out of Bangkok and have alot of utube videos for rolex watches). The ordering process was a nightmare and it took numerous emails and about 3 months to get the watch. I have to admit the physically the watch is very convincing, I've handled and drooled over quite a few authentic Daytonas and this replica is very close. Unfortunately the thing won't keep running and I constantly have to wind it (which I just read in a post in this forum is a big no-no for a 7750 movement. So what do I have to do to get this thing to keep accurate time? Who on this board is the best person to send it to for a good going over. I read the topic on 7750 movements with second hand dials at 6 oclock so I know thats a big negative to the thing running consistantly and I would be open to disabling the second hand feature if that was the best solution. My wife keeps telling me she's going to buy me a real Daytona but honestly I really would feel anxious wearing a 10-14K watch around when this one looks just as good for $300.00. I have a real Omega Constellation that I paid around $2500 for about 12 years ago and I love it but I wear it every day and it gets pretty beat up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pollux1 3 Posted October 12, 2010 Hi Scott, Have a read and maybe shoot a PM or two to some modders/ watch repair guys. The A7750 seconds at six is a bomb waiting to go off especially with older ones although I hear the newer movements are supposed to be better. Oh and welcome!!!!
