What movement in this Grand Carrera Calibre 36

[netr]

Hi guys,


I am in the market for a Grand Carrera Calibre 36 (movement A-7750 28800bph).
http://www.tswatchltd.com/10944-tg5...36-black-dial-pvd-ru-asian-7750-28800bph.html

However, before I buy it at a TD, I wanted to look at my local market. I saw that someone was selling this watch with a SWISS Valjoux 7750 movement (28800 bph). Because I was exploring these watches I did not find this particular movement in this watch at any TD (I found this movement in some other "scam" website, however).
Now I am asking you for help... Were these reps ever made with this movement? Can someone recognize the movement from these pictures? He says the watch was bought not long ago. He wants 250$ for it. He is also saying that everything works! I am a novice in rep business, and if a buy this watch I would have to trust him, that this is indeed a swiss movement.

Cheers,
Nejc

It is 7750 movement but not Swiss. As far as I know, Grand Carrera's and most of the 7750 reps don't have swiss 7750's, only asian. However, $250 is good price for that watch if everything works properly as TD's are selling it for around $400 + shipping. Just get it's original rubber strap and you have great watch.

Thank you for the reply!
Now that I am rereading the ad it says it is a stainless steel case (I was looking for full titanium case). I guess the difference is mostly in the weight of the watches?
Probably the straps can be sourced from the TDs?

Definitely not Swiss, a Swiss movement alone cost ~$400.
Pics are blury so I can't even confirm if its a asian7750.
I say just buy from the TD to be safe. If this guy is trying to sell it as Swiss when it's not, u bet something else may be wrong with it.

And correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think any ver of the rep comes in ti.

Thanks Shiro! Those were also my thoughts on the matter. I was thinking if he is maybe just unaware on the cost of the movement alone.
I have been studying these replicas and never came across a rep with a swiss movement (except on possibly scam web-sites).

Is rubber strap better than leather?
