So my 087 bit the dust after years. Figured I would install a swiss movement IF the rep hands will fit. Does anyone know if it's a 1:1 swap or will require the hands to be broached. Highly unlikely that I can source gen hands.

You will have to swap the center hand pinion from the rep movement over to the swiss as the swiss 7750 would have the big chrono hand pinion by default. You will see an empty hole on the pinion otherwise.
