    Finally found 1 Brand New RXW Plasmir Milgraph ETA 7750

    I bought a RXW MM20 before, but it was too big, so let it go sadly, because it is very well built, I satisfy with everything with the price I paid! So I decided to get a smaller RXW, the Plasmir Milgraph! Beginning I wasn’t please with the complicated dial… since minimalism is my favorite!
    Whatever it is, when I get to know this ETA version is available, I ordered it straight! If not because of stuck at custom last Friday, I should receive this it on that day! Staying too long in custom, over weekend is bit worrying, this is Malaysia, I still can’t trust the government servant completely. It was well packed, thank you to Mr. Shinichi for doing this well, I was very sure it won’t have any problem when first I see it!
    RXW packaging is always top class! Triple boxes, white box cover, black outer box, white foam type protector, the laminated wood box! Bit disappointed, because it is smaller than RXW MM20 box, so it can’t put in the extra black Connolly leather and screw driver (not burgeon) and it never come with Selvvt polish cloth!

    The user manual was printed on thick paper in English, just like MM20. Ken Trading’s Ginza workshop business card also in the box.
    Finally I see this chronograph with my own eyes, first impression is……. Small! Because I’m comparing with the Sinn U1 I’m wearing! The hand feel of the case is really solid and heavy! It is just like MM20.


    Watch run well, chronograph start, stop, reset to zero as it should… lume is really good when I put it under my table, I barely seen the tritium tube, it was far below the super luminova plasmir dial!
    The bracelet was solid 316 st. steel, no problem, double lock! Better feel than most rolex bracelet! The black Connolly leather strap was a beauty, hand stitch according to spec. Oh, I found a big scratch on the strap…. Immediately I snap a photo with my hand phone camera and email to Shinichi to report on this. Again his response is prompt, he admitted his mistake and said will send me a new strap! I’m happy; customer satisfaction is the most important thing in internet business! I’ll sure buy watch from him again.


    When I reach home, I just can’t wait to see the tritium tube in my dark room since the watch is in the box for several hours, the plasmir dial is completely dark! It is ok, not as bright as my ball hydrocarbon, but this is good enough for me to read in complete dark room!


    1. Case - 40mm diameter retro cushion shape 316 st. steel
    Soft iron inner case for antimagnetic
    2. Bracelet 316 st. steel solid double lock bracelet
    3. Crown- screw in crowns n chrono button for 100m water resistant
    4. Dial plasmir 3 layers sandwich dial, 12 h3 gas tube at hour marker
    5. Hand- super luminova on chrono and small second hand,
    - H3 gas tube on hour and minute hand
    6. Movement - ETA 7750
    i'm a happy man

    Hi, can you please kindly provide me the email address to Ken Trading. I am thinking of buying the RXW MM20 from him. FYI, I am located in Singapore. May I know what is the retail price for this MM20 then? Thank you for your time.

    Hi,

    Ken Trading do not sale out of Japan. You have to look into various watch sales forums to do a WTB in order to try to locate one.

    Those RXW models are not produced anymore so are not easy to find so the price tend to increase. They are well build watches.

    Myself have 4 differents models including this Plasmir and the famous MM20.

    Good Luck.

    Hi, I have an offer of S$1.8K for a mint condition MM20 bought 2.5 years ago, is that a good buy? Please advice.

    Are you selling or buy? Used? You can find 3 on eBay cheaper. I would contact Shin though.

    used or new?
    brand new in box.... (bergeon screw driver + fameford box + selvvyt polish cloth + additional strap)

    if never worn at this bad eco.... price is ok...
    if it is not a mint then is relatively expensive to me....
