This beefy chrono came in yesterday from Canada. I have to say, it is a serious timepiece. The bracelet itself is amazing.

This chrono is great: Seems like it's made anymore and that's a pitty. I was about to buy it 3-4 years ago and didn't: The price was great and the revues also.
Congrats!

Great watch is it true that you can feel the wobble in the 7750?

Yes it's thrue: I owned 3 different chronos with 7750 and the biggest is the one who gives most wobble feeling on the wrist: Certainly due to the large contact of the case-back on the skin. Personnaly I like it: The watch feels aliveThumbsUp02.gif

I love the wobble. This watch is worth far more than the asking price.

Enjoy!!!

I know that Citizen acquired Bulova/Accutron not too long ago. I am surprised that this watch was discontinued, along with the non-chrono VX-200. It is an unbelievably well-constructed watch. The original retail was around $2K for this one. I paid less for it, and I'm wondering if it will increase in value.

This one has been on my list for a while now one day I will get one but when I do it's gonna be the version KenC is showing, that black and red bezel with that dial rocks! This watch is like the best deal around I have them up on the bay for less than $500.00. Worth every penny and then some.

great watch but I highly doubt it will go up in value as many of us bought them when they were closed out at $425. for the chrono and $275. for the 3 hander last year....mine are keepers for that reason alone as it would be hard to find Swiss watch comparable in this price range imho...ThumbsUp02.gif

I like the watch, Wrath. But I think it won't appreciate lots and anytime soon. It's got to be very unique and should have a following of loyal collectors for prices to rise.

Also, it should have some precious metal in it like a gold or platinum case or bezel or dial.

Who cares, right? It's a great watch and makes you happy by simply owning and wearing it. That's more important.thumbsup.gif

Just so y'all know this is available on the sales forum albeit at a bit high of a price. When these flooded the market at sub $500 the watch was devalued mightily.crap.gif
