Some advise needed.

I bought a pam but they didn't give me the brown box is it required? I see forums always say triple box.

And any third party straps to recommend?

Yes it's required to keep the resale value high, when I bought I have double box but all cert and price tag inside the box.

Dude the brown box is the outer most box?

It should be a brown cupboard type box then black box and the main brown box. This will be the triple boxes

This thread moves fast...

Thanks for the info.
7750 seems to be quite a popular movement for some generic watch case makers.

Yes, it appears that there is more than meets the eye for the seemingly simple chrono complication.

I must say, after switching to analog watch for a while, a GMT might be more practical as Air Asia and Jetstar has allowed many of us to visit nearby countries more often. Adjusting time zone for analog watch is more troublesome compared to digital ones.

Or u can go with Russian chrono for half price of a 7750.
Movement looks great too

It is popular as it only cheapest Swiss thing available before SW300!
Sw300 production level maybe very low

Of course China and Russian 3133 are there, 3133 not cheap these days poor demand poljot not making about of Russian movements

Note 3133 is based on valjoux 7734

How big of a difference you need to adjust? I don't adjust for 1hr, 3 hrs perhaps

Ops I meant the brown cupboard box I saw it when they took the watch out but didn't realise they did not give me.

Is that required?
