So im noob with only three watches under my belt. The latest of which came today and is my first 7750. The rest were quartz. My AP shaq from trevor just came in today and I cant figure out how to set the time. Can anyone offer a noob some help adjusting it to my local time?

Really?
Make sure the time is BEFORE 2:30AM or AFTER 9:30PM
Then pull the crown out to the date setting position, and change the date.
For the time, pull the crown out all the way(Don't pull to hard, should be very easy to pull out) and turn the crown clockwise, or anti-clockwise to whatever time you need

AHEM!! I'm sure you mean after 2.30 and before 9.30..... to be sure just set time to 6 when you set date...
unscrew the crown counter clockwise.
then pull it all the way out, which is two clicks.
then move the time to 6 o'clock.
then click the crown back in one click, and set the correct date.
then click it back out one click and set it to the correct time.
then click it back twice in, and re-screw it back into the case, clockwise.
always put the time at 6 o'clock when setting your date to be safe, otherwise
or basically if it's between 10 and 3 it could really ruin the gears and such.

That is only necessary when setting the date not the time DMC. You can set the time whenever you want
The Crown on the AP Shaq does not screw in, just like the Gen. It takes some effort to get the crown to come out and you need some finger nail to get behind it, but as others have said 1st stop is date-set and 2nd stop is time set. If you really can't get the crown to pull out from the case then you have a genuine problem and you will need to contact the the seller. Remember never try to manual wind the crown to get a 7750 started. You need to rock the watch back and forth to get the movement to start winding-up. Wrist and body movement will perpetually keep the movement wound-up. Once you take off the watch it will gradually power down and stop. When fully wound the movement should last 30 to 40 hours before it fully stops after taking it off. With reps each movement is a little different. It just depends on how clean or how dirty the movement of your watch was when shipped. Will the watch run after a few minutes of movement?

Copy and pasted from MR's site, I was thinking of an OS10 movement, sorry
If your Valjoux 7750b1 has DATE function, DO NOT ADJUST the date when your time is between 10:00 to 3:00. It will damage the internal gears unknowingly if you do that. The BEST WAY is to manually adjust the time to 6:00 and then adjust the DATE after that.
Thanks for the replies everyone, I figured out the problem about over a week ago. The crown did not want to pop out at first but i ended up getting it and now the watch is set and running fantastic!!
I'm sorry gentlemen... I cannot continue to believe this man has a watch when no pics are present...
I see that there is some interested in viewing my AP, well here ya go gentlemen. please excuse the picture quality, it was taken from my blackberry.

Why did you not take the picture with a bastekball?
Because shaq should have played left tackle, and its buckeye football season! O-H!!
Btw how do I make the picture smaller? Today was my first picture upload.

I see you used imageshack, when you upload a picture there it gives you an option to resize the pic to various sizes. I usually click the 640x480 for message boards size.. that works really well.
Is that a Richard Mille rep in the case?
May we see a close up pic of that watch?
Pretty please?
