northantsrich 1 Posted May 21, 2015 MR has great communication and when the parcel gets busted with customs he will send a new one free. Toro doesnt do that. Hi Stu, I think Toro has custom protection too:) Only with triangular it hought? and MR his communication is 10x better imho Still running I assume:) Jep it is still running and didnt lost a minute since the purchase! Altough it runs jerky its still working fine. Also never touched the chrono(which i believe make it last longer). I want to take the plunge! so sweet looking piece. Should I go with Marvellous or Toro for this piece? MR has great communication and when the parcel gets busted with customs he will send a new one free. Toro doesnt do that. When you say it runs jerky what do you mean? I thought the vid you posted seemed fine! Also it's pretty small as a second hand goes so it must be pretty hard to see Well somtimes it stutters a bit or act like a quartz . But it varies Lol I try to stay away from complicated movements in reps for exactly this reason. This will be the only complicated one I have in the collection so it will be fun to see how it lasts. Only getting it as I want to see how good the quality is of the rep finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Stu, I think Toro has custom protection too:) I think most if not all TDs do. I think Toro is selling them for $388 but the others are cheaper. I paid about $380 all in with Mary via PP. That's with shipping EMS to the UK Yeah could be mate. My personal experiences with Toro werent that good. And with MR never went wrong, thats why MR has great communication and when the parcel gets busted with customs he will send a new one free. Toro doesnt do that.

northantsrich 1 Posted May 21, 2015 I was planning on having it as a watch I can rotate. I hope the JF factory start to do some other decent rolex reps other than subs if the quality on this is as good as you say it is. I only got it from Mary as she accepts PayPal so it was super simple. MR has great communication and when the parcel gets busted with customs he will send a new one free. Toro doesnt do that.

They (JF) already do a great Milgauss, but I am not sure if the extra cost has sense respect to the Noob one. It would be good to see the movement differences (by the way my Noob one that I got from Tony crazy sale runs great even on timegrapher).

By movement difference for the Milgauss I mean that even if they both use 2836, the Noob is the "Tweny five jewels" (yes, tweNY), maybe the JF is the better Sea-Gull one.

Stuvetjee 17 Posted June 1, 2015 http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=1601 Good post on the 7750 and @6 seconds Quick vid of the @6 running. Still jerky, but runs like a champ so far. https://vimeo.com/129482982 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duzza 182 Posted June 1, 2015 Mine is still running great. The second hand on mine is quite a bit smoother but I notice when the watch stops the second hand always stops in the same place, at about 4 seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

northantsrich 1 Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Just got my one today. Bloody amazing rep. I hope JF Factory turn their attention to other good reps as this one is spot on. For me the seconds at 6 seem fine. Ill only be putting this on for a few days or weeks at a time so with a little luck it will run for ages. You are right about the engraving and LEC, personally I like the silver crown at 6, its the best in a rolex I have seen. Oh and the laser engraving in the clasp is awesome way better than the BK DSSD I had (the bad engraving was one reason I sold it). Thanks for the original post. Pics to come soon.

danielbguerra 0 Posted June 10, 2015 Bought one with Ryan that suddenly stopped working. Although he agreed to receive it back for verification, a friend of mine bought it in order to fix. Do you guys think I should buy another one and check my luck this time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northantsrich 1 Posted June 12, 2015 I would get another Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duzza 182 Posted June 12, 2015 I would buy another too. They are that nice that if the A7750 in mine packs up I will seriously consider getting it replaced with an ETA7750 and have the additional gearing transferred over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuvetjee 17 Posted June 12, 2015 I would buy another too. They are that nice that if the A7750 in mine packs up I will seriously consider getting it replaced with an ETA7750 and have the additional gearing transferred over. Talked to a guy who makes his own custom movements, and gave him this idea also to do the transferring gears on a eta 7750. He said that it still eventually will die. Because the gear train is poorly done. The gears arent tight or proper in position and because they are ''floating'' in the train it eventually will jam up. He is now searching a swiss movement for me to replace it with the A7750 and make a custom movement especially for this Daytona. In other words, i will soon have the most reliable @6 daytona rep that doesnt explode The guy is an artist with fabricating his own gears, and movements. He starts from scratch and make everything custom. Will certainly keep everyone posted here. Although my Daytona is still running top-notch, i want to replace the jerky A7750 with the custom build movement. He is now searching for a Swiss calibre that he can use as a base Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
