Excellent pics, review and movement tear-down, (you've got skills). A nice introduction to a Diver I didn't know existed.

Excellent review Chris..
The dial looks clean and crisp.. hopefully the Blue dial Diver Chrono is just as good.. that's the combo I'd go for..
Not sure I'm able to pull off the other colour combo's :D

Great review, really appreciate the insights. I was wondering how is the dial color compared to the V1?

Can someone tell me where the clear gasket goes that helps put friction on the tachy to turn around? Thanks!

I'm curious, is it possible to get rid of the deco plate, and shave down the back case cover, so the thickness will be like gen spec?

Why bother it's not that much difference to really make it worth while doing it

Hi Chris, Excellent pics....many thanks.
But i have a question about the modul.
I have attached a picture.
The marked gear wheel has no contact with the other wheels, why?
Which gear wheel rotates the seconds display to the other wheels.
Please excuse my bad View attachment 1545 image 10.png English language skills.
Many Thanks

Great review!

Wondering if anyone can confirm how reliable the Chronograph system is. I know many have said the ROOs with second at 12 is a ticking timebomb and Chrono shouldn't be used. Is it the same with the seconds at 3 movement for this model?

Thx

This has been covered many times but here you go: As long it’s a 7750 and not the second@9 it’s the same unreliability as the the sec@12. So seconds@3, 6 and 12 are all unreliable by design.
