This is part of an old problem that I mentioned some time ago (prior to Skyland release) and Fakemaster also commented on it a while ago..

I think it is faulty movements from one specific factory, faulty jewel placement at pivot points giving great resistance ?

Weird. Oh well, such is this thing of ours.

I'd swap pubes with jewels anytime... :wink:

OMG! I probably should reconsider my V2 preorder withn PureTime if this problem persists.

this is a strange sitation isn't it? i got a new v3 evo a couple of months ago or so and i have been wearing it since it arrived. i only tried the chronos one time and they worked and reset perfectly. the movement works fine but could use an adjustment, it gains about 15 seconds in 24 hours i guess the movement came from a different supplier?

There are also different 'grades' of A7750 movements... maybe they went with a lower grade, cheaper movement to save money? I read somewhere that the cheapest grades of A7750 copys start at around $6 and go up to around $120 or so.

Just like there are good and bad copys of Rolex Submariners, theres gotta be a lot of good and bad copys of the ETA7750

Post as soon as you get them in and let us all know.

Is it still common practice to get the A7750s serviced as soon as we get them from our dealers?

Are the movements just dirty / badly oiled or are they flawed?

I have v2 for 3 months and so far i don't have any problem. I hope it will last at least a year.
