I find it interesting that's how they are terming it, among the other usual BS claims ("One of the most expensive clasp configurations," "They'll never believe you paid under $700" states Invicta Lyin').

I hope any sucker dumb enough to order their "coveted" "top" movement for 700 smackers has the good sense to bring it to a jeweler and have him crack it open to look inside. Anywho who takes any sales claim made by these loathsome TV talking heads at face value is playing a fool's game.

The Bovne website lists it as a "Swiss Made ETA 7750 Automatic." In the words of Jack Webb, dum-de-dum-dum.

Oh, and Kendall Kaddidlephopper is a kunt. ("This is an item you will feel the integrity all the time," whatever that means.)

I should think the wartches will indeed contain the Very Rare, Highly Coveted, Valjoux 7750.
I believe it shows that Lalo knows his customers. The previous fiasco, in the minds of the fanbois, served to highlight how wonderful and special and amazing the 7750 is. There is no thought of "standard" grade, grey market, casing up with indifferent QC...nosiree...just "I must have a 7750...why it's a triple grail!!!! Much better than that crappy SW500 I got last time. LOLOLOL. Only $700? For a rare Valjoux? How many value pays?"
That Nvicter is aware of the marketing potential of the fiasco, and only nvicter fanbois see a fiasco as a selling point, is the "feel the integrity" nonsense. See? A genuine Swiss Made Valjoux has integrity, and is worth paying a premium for. Unlike the shitty SW500. (Until they offer another wartch with the SW500, of course. Then it will also be a grail, albeit merely a double grail.

Invikur understands the client base and are masters at pushing their buttons.

A more succinct description of WIT/WG land has never been written.

I responded to him at Wit.

Because this needs to be known. A so called "watch company" placed a SW500 movement is watches they claimed ad the More expensive and better quality Valjoux 7750.

Can you say Fuck Invicta and the scumbags that run it.

Poor HK; assfucked by Eyal yet again:

UPDATE:

TWR says the watch is dried out, needs serviced/lubed. All to the tune of $346.
No.
Hell no.
In the drawer it goes. Maybe at some point in the future I'll feel like spending it. Today is not that day.
UNLESS, any of you fine folks know of someone trusted I can send it to for a second opinion.

Interestingly, I've been enjoying this hobby for some years now, and this is the first time I've ever heard of a relatively new (HK says his Nvicter is a year and a half old) movement being "dried out."

Then these words of wit-dumb from bearralph:

The same thing is happening with several of my 2824's. I guess automatics are not a sure fire way to avoid servicing costs.
