Is it possible to change the rotor on a Tag rep?

[kenwashere]

Hey everyone,

I recently ordered a Tag Calibre 16 CV2014 here recently from Trevor, and judging by the photos on Trevor's website, I believe the back of the Tag rep I bought uses the old, solid rotor (I'll double-check once I receive the QC photos from him).




However, upon looking at the other CV2014 models, it appears that they all use the cut-out style rotor, shown here (just to clarify, this one is gen):





Would it be possible to source one of those cut-out style rotors and replace the solid one?

I did read this on another thread regarding the Tag reps:
"indeed, i dont imagine any of the A7750 rotor bearings are even close to looking like a gen, shame . i could make some killer frankens if A7750 pieces were fully compatible with valjoux"

Can anyone confirm? I'd really like to franken this Tag as much as possible. :cheers:

They are not cheap and hard to come by.

I have one CV2014 with gen rotor and silver screws and gen datewheel. Then I have one with a Swiss 7750 as per what tag use, gen rotor, datewheel obviously, gen crown and all gen hands. Oh and gen bracelet. Looks awesome.

Look at EBay there are a lot of gen Tag parts.

And have a look at this thread for more info:

Good to see you around again Santre!

We have the best CV2014 reps going. I'm wearing mine now.

It is awesome!

You can swap them without problems.
I have swapped rep/gen rotors many times, the screws have always been compatible.

Like mine?

This is one of the standard A7750 rotors, that Shanghai factory make. Just engraving is custom. Here's the picture from their rotors catalog:

You can get a gen of the old style ones for $44. You would need to tranfer the bearing.

Make sure you get the 43mm Carrera, as there is a similar 41mm model of it available, which is smaller than gen.

I would like a gen rotor for my Aquaracer 500m as my rep one is scruffy. Where can I source this please, any ideas?
