Hello, I don't know if it breaks often. I have a 7750 with sec@12 and it works. But 15 mm is thick and not easy to wear...

It works, but you should service it, and chrono function is kinda jackpot and it could break your watch sadly.

 

[Winni1611]

As said the chrono function might be the problem. If you don't use it, you should be fine.

But it’so hard to resist using it

If you want a nice chronograph at that price Daytona style just get a Sugess 4801 homage for cheap or hunt around M2M

Otherwise save up and get a true 4130 clone. Buy once. Cry once. If you can afford the 7750 Daytona then you can just wait double the amount of time to save up for a 4130.

 

[dpd3672]

I’ve got a couple that have lasted a while, but I never use the chrono.

Then again, I don’t use the chronos in my gens, either.

Save the chrono for emergencies, like when your lunar module needs a timed burn to correct course. Otherwise, just use the stopwatch in your phone.

Well I'm just shit assed lucky I guess, I've said this before and I'll say it again .....

I've had plenty of 7750's over the years, and coming back to the hobby in more recent years I've never once had one crap out on me.

I think the main reason they crap out is operator error, i.e. pushing the lower pusher whilst Chrono is running, turning hands backwards when it's in date change period, going all Rambo at the crown and stem etc etc.

I have a mechanical sympathy for anything and I did used to use my first Daytona's chrono a helluva lot at race circuits.
Not so much these days as I have proper stopwatches on me clip board, but zero issues here.

 

[marcel_one_]

Okay, wil probably not by an Daytona with an Asia 7750.
Not using the Chrono is kinda useless tbh.
There are way cheaper Daytona Replicas with non working Chronos. In case of not using it that would make more sense I think. But where is the fun on owning a not 100% functional watch. xD

Thanks for all your answers!!

Yes, if it's not functionnal, it's a pity. Sometimes it's functionnal with the second at the wrong place : AP 26238ST.OO.A340CA.01 for example...
