I think we have a responsibility problem in this thread.

Nobody seems to be responsible for maintenace/support.

Please reupload the comparison pictures again!
Thank you very much!

Well, the author is not around so it is difficult to get the pictures back up unless someone saved them. It happens sometimes. Anyways, The V1 is hard to find now, so the V2 is going to be the only option for most people these days.

I'm oN board

Asian 7750 and Timeshops both have them. The V2 I believe.

Anyone know if you are able to bargain with these dealers, or is the price listed on the website the price you pay?

as a potential buyer I like to know the flaws of the v2. I started a new thread for this here: v2 thread

The problem wit this thread is sentences like this:

"The datewheel I think it´s ok on both" <<<This doesnt confirm anything


Not trying to be a dick. I'm trying to make this clear for all of us

IS the Top Gun V2 from hontwatch same as Toro's?

And what do you think about the swiss movmt versions (700Euro+)?

Better overall? or just the movmnt?

Hey All,
I'm new and don't really understand some of the lingo here from all you avid users, but will certainly make an effort to try and catch on quick.
V1 and V2 - these are two difference versions I am assuming...where do I see who is selling each of these versions? And 'gen'....is that 'generic'? does that reference the actual original? I'm interested in purchasing one of these but don't know how! Please help a n00b!

2 questions.

I got one from Toro.


1.The crystal is installed incorrectly - not equally.
In order to fi it i need a spare gasket. Where can i find one? and which is the correct height to re install it?

2. The Top Gun sticker at the back is waterproof or not?
Seems that has a small bubble.


Thanks,

D.

Have you asked Toro whether he can exchange it? Besides tgat you might get away with just re-pressing it?

I'd love to see the Miramar released at some point, doesnt look a hard piece to rep.
