Where can I found Swiss ETA7750 movement?

[rckh]

Dear Bros:

I would like to swap Swiss ETA7750 movement for my IWC Pilot Chrono. However; 2 watchsmiths who serviced y watch b4 told me that it's impossible to purchase ETA7750 movement........ But I found many bro here already or plan to swap ETA7750 from A7750.

I found 1 or 2 in ebay; used USD$175 only; http://cgi.ebay.com/Chronograph-Valjoux ... dZViewItem

Is it ok?

Need your help here!
Thx a lot!
RCKH

Biggest issue after sourcing the swiss ETA 7750 is getting hands that fit the new movement... The diameter of the "lugs" on the hands is entirely incorrect.

Also could run into minor issues with the stem... changing the crown can prove tricky depending on how the rep was assembled in the first place.


Do-Able? certainly. Easy? nope.

Be really careful about purchasing movements on the bay for obvious reasons..

Their price is 330 bucks (170 pounds), which to me seems OK for an ETA 7750. That eBay price of 175 seems suspicious, to say the least.
