Any experiences with this Daytona?

[Watchill]

Hi all,

I have found this Daytona at puretime:

http://www.puretime.co/product/daytona-116520-black-dial-2003-model-update/

Do you have any experience with this watch? Does it run stable?

I am asking since I bought a Daytona with seconds at 6 from another dealer before, the watch stopped running after just running the chrono-function for a few minutes...
At puretime.co it says "improved stability and reliability", could it be true?

Many thanks
Watchill

No.

Nope, it is still a crap shoot. No matter what it says imo.

look OP here's the rule buy a a7750, use it, break it, send it to Vac, fix it!

After Vac gets done it's bullet proof!

when you by it, be ready to spend another $280. on the movement.... SIMPLE


ACCORDING TO PURETIME EVERY WATCH THEY SELL IS WORN BUY SUPERMAN, SANTA CLAUS AND JESUS CHRIST.....

Believe that crap at your own risk,,, I roll my pants up every time I look at Angus's site!

Always a risk on the Daytona...

Basically this. You may get lucky and have one that runs great for a while (I have had numerous) but you may also be one of the unlucky ones. If you want a daytona bad enough, and are willing to risk the money, pull the lever. If not, don't.

If I remember correctly it went like this :
Buy a a7750-
Sec@9 with confidence
Sec@3 with hope
Sec@6 when drunk
:hehehe: not the best memory but you get the point.

You think the Daytona 6263 is crap as well? It has an asian lemania movement, how stable is it though?

those seagull st-19's are the best chronograph movement in china.

Is the model with the movement which is time bomb ticking to blow up?

 

[txrob779]

The 6263 series and the Newmans are KILLER Daytona's. This is the way to go for sure.

It's still 2mm too high, after reading your post on these needing serviced right outta the box I thought fck it. Then I noticed the height is too damn high . I'll stick with GMT, Explorer, and day dates.

All keeper reps need a service, the QC is horrible IMHO.
