swiss 7750 valjoux vs asian 7750

[Choyin]

I´m newbie at this world.
I´ve seen some webs for buying watches and now i´ve a question....
Difference between Swiss7750 and Asian 7750? Both with 28,800 vph.

aesthetically speaking, they are pretty much the same.

but the seconds hand and sub dial hands have different post diameters so the hands aren't interchangeable without modification. also reliability is about 100x's better on the swiss version.

But the Asian7750 has a nice reliability? What do you think about it?
I don´t have a replica yet, and no one of my watches have those movements.

Yeah, for the most part it should work fine. I usually try not to mess with the chrono though. For those watches that are modified 7750s, the reliability will go down though (i.e. Seconds at 6 and 12).

Whould it be possible to by a ETA 7750 (swiss) and put that in. My AP ultimate replica? It currently contains an asian 7750

Yes, for a competent watch maker. Or with also buying gen AP hands. There is a slight difference in the size of the tubes between the Swiss and Asian on the large second hand which needs to be modified.

And OP, don't be fooled by the web sites offering Swiss 7750 movements in reps. Most are total scams.

what modification? I need to install the asian 7750 hands on a swiss 7750.

do I need to use some parts of the asian on the swiss one?
