It is impossible to determine the lifespan of any watch. As posted in some of the other threads, you really should consider getting a rep that is not a chrono for your 1st. These watches are a lot better then you may think, but if you get a bad 7750 for your 1st you will be turned off forever.
Not using the chono may decrease the possibility that the movement wil fail, but you must understand the nature of the beast. The old version is bad mostly because if the lask of quality control. These movements are a copy of the ETA, which are typically thrown together with no lubrication.
The new version is supposed to be a better copy, but it is still a copy.
These are replica watches that are made in China; they are not genuine, and certain risks come with that.
If you're looking for a white face rep, that is a Breitling, and are nervous about the 7750, then why don't you go with a white faced seawolf avenger?
Sounds good
this is what I would like with a white face
Anyone know were to ge one??
