Thanks, Shelby. Personally, I believe the "negative" comments were honestly given by the other mates. The seconds dial @ six does "tic" and all, but I believe it's too small for some to notice with the naked eye, unless the grabbed my wrist and took an upclose look -- which I would not allow to happen anyway. AND, perhaps, the larger chrono seconds is not exactly silky smooth is probably a valid criticism. I don't believe these comments are inherently negative. I asked for comments, and I'm receiving them. Personally, I like this movement; it's as close to the time bomb that is an A 7750 as I'm willing to get. Do I wish this movement were better? Sure, but a new "Oyster Quartz" type movement would drive the price of this beauty up into the atmosphere.

Hi Dave! I didn't mean negative feedback about your rep but for this 50th anniversary edition and it's colors in general. I really like this blue dial accent in combination with brown bezel but I keep reading comments like "how company like Rolex could make such an ugly watch" and that's what I don't understand.
Yes, I agree about a movement. I couldn't stand that I buy 7750 sec @6 version and it dies in few days, weeks or months.

Also what Cromag wanted to say I suppose is that he didn't know how much is the gen so it's less likely someone else will but searching over the net I found that most of the prices confirms MSRP of around $75K.

Thanks for sharing and uploading the vid was a great job. The good thing is You get the design and have a reliable watch, that was not possible before. Would have to try out in real life if that secs at 6 bother me or not. Interesting
