Seand83 0 Posted January 19, 2015 Stuve, what do you think about this new improved movement? Do you know if it is any different compared to the bad 7750Second@6 that we've always heard about? The so called "improve" is limited: they basically skeletonized the wheel that is running without jewel in order to make to have less friction. Still it's not a "solution". +1. Contacted Domi about the jewelmod @6. He said he quitted working on them cause it was not a reliable mod to do. Some daytonas worked great, others broke months after. He is still doing the freezing @6 though, but it would annoy me not to see the seconds running. +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By modding a strong Swiss 7750 with a custom made (jewel mod) gear plate. Those two combined will give us a stronger more reliable @6 module we hope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those two combined will give us a stronger more reliable @6 module we hope I would be interested for sure There must be a reliable mod to do it.

again 0 Posted January 25, 2015 Personally i think that Daytona is One of the best rep out of the box The different thickness from the gen is neglectable The only issue is the mov I have black One with 7750 mov and at the monent the only issue is that lost 1 min each day Congrats for your pics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DerekT 0 Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) This is a really nice watch and looked stunning. I've been waiting for a updated version with improved sec @ 6 for reliability. With how far the rep scene had reached, I am surprised that no one out there have this issued resolve. Edited January 28, 2015 by DerekT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stuvetjee 17 Posted April 8, 2015 Good news as I've just ordered one! I bought my father in law the Noob secs @ 6 nearly 2 years ago now. Still running strong. Im thinking about shaving the chrono pushers a bit, since the gen are really flat compared to the rep models. You think its possible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cannibal 0 Posted April 24, 2015 Wow I've always jonesed for a Dee and that is pretty amazing. Sadly with the Canuckbuck at 30%, that adds an extra $100 to the price tag. Will have to wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
