Jean Marcel, limited edition of 100, carbon fiber dial Chronometer grade decorated 7750 movement This watch is a keeper and I would recommend it to any one, but with only 100 made and almost if not already sold out, I can't. The watch is approx. 37mm x 12mm with out crown with an 18mm strap. They have 2 at shopathome to anyone that just has to have one, and does not mind a smaller very well built watch.

from the weave pattern you can tell the quality. very nice eric! 1 question though. How do you tell the difference between a standard 7750 and the chronometer grade movement?

Thanks everyone it is a cool watch.:D The funny thing is I called to cancel the order and it had already been sent. I am glad they had sent it out already. Sean the balance wheel is the quickest way to see if they are using chronometer grade parts. If the spokes widen at the ends, like the profile of a trumpet, then it is chronometer grade balance wheel. The rest is not as easy to explain.

Not when this one was produced, ETA has since gone into doing custom decoration on movements. This one was done by people JM contracted to do the decoration. Good luck to any watch company ordering custom work form ETA out side of the Swatch group. ETA has tightened the noose around companies that do not measure up to there standards or prestige. It is not just volume of orders and dollar amounts.

Sweet looking. Nice clean layout! Lovin' the dial work. The date looks 'big'. Is that a photograph thing, or is it due to the 37mm case size?

Thanks guys.:D Tony that is definitely one for you to stay away from it is small even by my standards. The 18mm strap is a little small, Crissy first thing said I can wear that one. Marc the date wheel is normal size believe it or not, they had to shoe horn that movement in that case. It is around 37.5 mm and they needed every tenth. I now see why given the current market, it took so long to sell 100 of them.
