This is my third 253 now and I just had to have it. The downsides on this one are:
  • Incorrect crownguard[/*:m:3gcli7tj]
  • Mineral Crystal[/*:m:3gcli7tj]
  • Crown to thin[/*:m:3gcli7tj]
  • Numbers to large and too thin[/*:m:3gcli7tj]
here are the pics - the movement is stunning

yep Asian copy, but the best running one I ever had - I was on vacation for 2 weeks and when I came back it just gained about 40 seconds

the big thin numbers bug me a lot - but from a movement perspective it is better than the swiss 7750

I don't know if there will be other improvement.
1. The lever is not correct profile.
2. The letter tachemeter is too large.
3. The numbering in small hands are not correct.

I think the Asian 7750 is better since Swiss 7750 will show 25 jewels which is against the 30 jewels on rotor.
