If you're lucky you'll break the hand, if not, you'll break the wheel holding the hand. Or both.

There is a bigger concern, rep hands are made of aluminum, not brass or steel, and the setting between the tube and hand is often very weak, so it's quite common to see hands breaking during the broaching.

Also,
a7750 hands and gen Valjoux hands dont swap out well. jmb has me buy a set of Tudor Valjoux hands for my Daytona/Tudor from WSO, which as a 7750 Valjoux vs. the Cartel 116520 Daytona rep hands. You just about HAVE to make sure what they are or else you run into broaching problems.
