hi guys,
i'd like to buy a graham chronofighter oversize replica, but i really can't decide.
I don't want to spend much money, but i want a working chrono...
I've heard that the asian 21j are without working chrono...
Quartz is working, but quartz is not as nice as automatic...;-)
7750, working, nice, expensive...and some people said it's not so affordable...
What should I do?Please help me!
thanks a lot in advance...

I bought a Graham from WatchEden and the cheaper version that they had for sale, didn't have the correct face as it has the cheaper movement inside.

Really, I would also go with the 7750.....it will be a much nicer and accurate watch.

Good luck

Is your question a riddle?
You know the answer it's if you want automatic and working chrono then you have to buy a 7750
If you want a chrono that will be trouble free and completely accurate then buy a quartz
If you like the watch and like 99% of people will never use the chrono then buy the 21j

Just to expand on T4D... A quartz movement is bullet proof (its referred to as a "beater'). You can treat it mean and it will still tick away and give the accurate time. Set and forget. Of course they aren't the purest of reps when talking about chrono's but thats the compromise you make for a solid watch.

21J have a smoother sweep hand

The 7750 are as close to 1:1 as you will get. But they need love and attention like and old car. Service it, don't thrash it and treat it with respect. They are also not as acurate at keeping the time. They will need adjusting every week say.
cheers

thanks guys,
my only concern was due to the fact that I've read somewhere that not all the quartz movements are good, I mean, many of them are often faulty...
is it true?
