Can anyone tell me about the movt in this watch?
I know its the new 28.8 beats but does it have all those 11 extra cogs in , or not.
I think I would be right in saying that if it doesnt, its good thing, maybe more reliable.

I said I wasnt getting another chrono but these look tempting.

No, it doesn't have any extra gears. It's the natural 12-9-6 setup for 7750. Definitely the best arrangement for any 7750-powered rep. And yes, it should be much more reliable than the seconds at 6' version.

Thanks By tor, I knew it would be you who answered that one ,
what flaws does this watch have beside the date being of offcentre.

Not much at all. The pearl is ok... but it seems to be misaligned a bit. The bezel is misaligned as usual (but that's an easy fix).

See this thread how to fix it:

It's one of the best replicas without a doubt.

It is an excellent rep. Too bad that the bracelet is not as good as the watch. :roll:
