Any watchmaker that doesn't know about 7750 is not a watchmaker imho.

I was actually not directly referring to his knowledge of the 7750 but in case of repairs if he can source the parts

Agreed!

Call him first. He'll get you straightened out on your questions. I believe it is possible to use some (not all) ETA parts on the A7750. Honestly, if you want a service, he's a great local option. If you need parts, you are better off just swapping out the movement for a new one.

funny, I just saw his store yesterday. I was at the post office across the street from him. I was thinking about stopping in to see what he had.

I remembered you living in the area, I kept missing Js GTGs before I relocated. Bummer!

Called Mike yesterday
He can do service on the 7750 but he has no parts for the Chinese movements . . .
So if something needs to be replaced . . .
Also Mike is asking more than Vac to do a service
Gonna send it to Vac . . . safety wise ;-)

,, so how much does mike charge for 7750 servicing eg when I get a new piece and want to service right away.

 

[Kingair2013us]

Mike told me 325

dudes, here's the trick... When one of these A7750s craps the bed on you.... just part out a watch and get a new one. unless you can find a guy to do it cheap, Service is worth it on Swiss movements only. Mike is charging the same price he would charge on a genuine Valjoux movement and honestly that's about what the Market runs.

Got no problem with Mike's price

But the parts is my problem
