Any reason the black 3777 isn't a super rep? I've pored over pics, looks pretty close to me. no real standouts

I want to install gen eta 7750. Tell me about the swap. Will replica hands work or I need gen hands? Who do you advise to send watch for the work?thanks for letting me know
You need gen hands or a skilled watchmaker, because the stem diameter of rep 7750 are slightly bigger. So the watchmaker has to bend the stems of the gen eta 7750 a little to fit the rep hands to the movement.
Gen hands will be the better solution. You can try at http://scotchwatch.com/
With gen hands is an easy swap.
I am very interested to swa0 genuine eta 7750 into my petit prince chrono. Please provide details on the swap. I head the hands need to he modified to fit eta. Please detail as this has been my dream to be able to sctually use the features. Thanks
Read my old post one above your post. The swap is easy if you know how to remove and assemble a watch movement. The problems:
a) sourcing a gen ETA 7750, better an IWC 79320
b) the stem diameter of the gen 7750 differs from the rep movement. You need to bend the stems a little, little bit too fix the hands to the stem. That's the worst thing and really difficult
c) source gen hands (scotchwatch.com e.g.). This would be a perfect fit to the green ETA 7750
