Hi guys. Does anyone know if there is TD's that axept BTC for payment? I am really considering going for this one in deep black. Looks awesome
There are a few that accept cryptocurrency. Take a look at the TD forum pages and visit their sites, you'll not only find out who accepts it but can also see their selection and prices to compare.

For those of us with smaller wrists it looks like there's a new ceramic DSOM that just posted on Puretime. Could be an interesting alternative (I REAAALLLLLY want this GMT, but the size, esp thickness might kill it for me).

You do realize that the DSOTM has the same diameter as the ceramic GMT and while the gen is "only" 16mm thick, the rep is listed as a whopping 18,5mm (might be bogus, we'll see) in height?

It says on the listing that it is 41.5mm for the DSOTM vs 45.5mm? But yeah the thickness might still rule it out. Judging by the photos it looks like bubble glass on top AND bottom!

The detail has now been updated to 44m x 18.5. And at $618, that is a hard pass....

The price wouldn't even be the problem IMO if it was decent, I bought my AP Offshore back then without a second thought for $680 and you basically get a similar value (decorated 7750, ceramic case).
It's just that in direct comparison to an almost perfectly replicated movement with a GMT complication and overall prime quality from VSF (screw the crying about the bezel engraving, it's less noticeable on the brushed red/blue versions anyway) for more than $100 less, it's a bad joke. OMF was never known for quality, but the right subdial - admittedly a hard task - certainly doesn't work as per gen and a height of 18,5mm just looks silly.

Hello which version (color) has the best bezel which corresponds to the original watch the most? Thank you!

I have now chosen to do so:

If you go with this because of a small engraved bezel vs liquid metal flaw, you made an horrible choice.
This speedmaster rep isn't close to be in the same league as VSF reps.

Come on,someone must be fed up with that bezel already:wave-1:
My New Zealand model is waiting for me at the post office!! Damned work limiting life and watch hobby!
Got it from the post office moment ago. First impression: the good VSF quality is there! Very sharp, small details are nicely finished, beautiful AR, lume, all. Strap is very soft, much softer than genuine CRPO rubber strap. The only thing that was a disappointment, is the caseback paint, left away after 5 mins of wear. Basically found it on my hand when taking the watch off. Need to find the right tone of red and redo the painting...
