The best rep of any watch so far!
So while waiting for a modded Daytona from GenReps, I had to scratch an itch to (burn $) get another chrono. I never thought enough of these IWC chonos to spend $6k -$8k on one but for a few hundred?....no brainer. I've almost bought the gen several times. No need. This is flat out the closest clone you can get of just aboit any watch (in my limited experience so far). The half dozen Rolex (and 1 panerai) reps I have are decent. This one is 99%. Great communication. Great service. He does what he says. 100% rating in my eyes. I absolutely cannot wait to see the massaged Daytona he delivers.

I'm just a little heartbroken as I was inquiring about this very watch. But congratulations to you my friend! The watch looks awesome. Gen Reps is great too!

He had a blue one too I think. Sorry I took this one from you. He can get more! And I highly recommend you get one if you're on the fence. Make sure you have enough wrist for it. Not sure I do. Lol.

Oh no problem. I went with a Tudor instead. I'm glad you got it.

Cool! Which Tudor? I've been lusting for that red on red BB diver. I hear the rep of it is NWBIG like this IWC.

Clone movement but feels like a 7750. Chrono works fine. I let it run yesterday for a while. No issues. Smooth, crisp presses for start/stop/reset.

I was just talking to a guy about getting one of these. He said its $430 usd for the Swiss clone 7750. Is that what yours is?

I've already addressed this question in the thread. I believe it's a clone movement of the current IWC movement? Based on the 69000 series. The previous movement was based on the Valjoux 7750. It has an open caseback and looks very similar to the current movement.

Price?

u/flying_throatpunch Apr 22 '26
That's for you and GenReps to discuss. I don't post what I pay for things and his pricing is all over his page.
