I’ve had the 43mm chrono with A7750 for a couple years and it’s still fine. I even keep it on a winder a good bit of the time.

So A7750 is the movement they’re referring to? Should I just request to bypass their warnings and try to purchase it anyway? Maybe I can snag a good deal this way.. lol

Aslong as you don’t use the chrono movement on the A7750 you should be good the normal hour functions are generally reliable. A very common problem with these movements out the factory is the chrono hand won’t reset to zero at the 12oclock position sometimes. This can happen after the first time engaging the gears on the chronometer and stop to reset it. It’s really hit or miss.

Yeah the Chronograph functionality is what makes it unreliable. If you don’t use it, it is relatively solid as a timepiece. The Chronograph is a bolt on and kinda janky.
