ETA 7750 drop in?

[ExtraExtra]

Looking to do a project. I have a couple of ETA 7750. Anyone know of a rep where the ETA 7750 can drop-in?

iwc pilot chrono 3777 could be a good point to start

Breitling Navitimer and some Vintage Omegas too!

Well, One thing to keep in mind is the chronograph seconds hand pinion is a different size between the Asian 7750 and ETA so you would have to source a genuine chronograph seconds hand, or you could try broaching the post. The couple of swaps I've had done, this has never been successful and I've always ended up having to source a genuine hand. Another option is to look at older non-chronograph Panerai models (Noob, h factory, kwf, etc....not VSF As, they use a superclone movement) since those would not have the compatibility issue

It should also be noted ( as I learned today) that the Asian 775x stem is different than the ETA- it will not fit ( at least in the clone I am trying). The large end proximal to the setting lever trough is significantly larger and will not traverse the plate.

Thank you for the info. Looks like 7750 may not be the way to go.

You could likely use the clone stem with an ETA 775x- I'll give it a whirl and post results
