Just arrived last week. Black/black. ETA 7750. I removed the buckle and replaced it with a deployment clasp. I wish these high end watches would come with deployment from the factory. Love the wobble!

Nice, very subdued look.

I have an Accutron with the 7750 in it and the first time it did the wobble I thought, "dang, I broke it." Who knew it was a feature.

Let me get this straight..... you just got a watch and it's getting deployed to the Ningaloo Reef? I had no idea there was even a conflict there.

 

[SteveHookEm]

Their word, not mine! haha I always called it a "deployant" clasp. Since they list deployment in the description, I'll go with that.

Okay, what's a wobble?

For some reason, if you move your arm sharply, you can feel the rotor spin ferociously. It lasts longer than you'd think and kind of feels like it woobles.

The Valjoux 7750 only winds while the rotor is spinning in one direction, and if it free spins fast enough in the other direction the wobble occurs. If you like that feeling, you'll probably enjoy wearing bumpers.

Wobble=Awesome.

yea i want a watch that wobbles, I have realized i want everything. I have to slow down before I go broke.

Forget it, bub!
Once you come to the realization you want everything, it's already too late.
Just accept fate and keep checking the want ads for a second job.

 

[brashboy]

Interesting. I have a Mido that does that.

 

[reddevilbr]

7750 and wobble??? I want one!!!:w00t:

 

[staplejj33]

Don't they all (automatics) do that? I know both of my Orides and my Omega do that - especially the Omega.

Not all. And among the ones that do the 775x series is the most prevalent.

They took away the subdial at 9 o'clock in the Glycine.

Oh, I got one that does that...The Miyota 9015 28,800 BPH automatic in my Lum-Tec M50 winds in only one direction and I thought it was broken too!

Multiply your M50 wobble by 10 and you'd have a 775x wobble! Long live the wobble!
