Finally a 1:1 Moonwatch?

[blahblah484]

Is there finally a functional, working chrono Moonwatch? I've seen this on Trustytime. Wondering what you all think. Any flaws? Dial spacing?

The microstep quartz has the chrono function working but subdial layout is not accurate

Several threads on this one. Missing dot on the bezel over the 110. AMD 18.5 mm thick.

 

[blahblah484]

...wow. What an embarassing mistake. Hope they fix that.

Really disgusting, 618 $ for a piece of junk.

I really hope they develop a clone movement for the speedmaster.

these knock offs are quite annoying

This new lume shot posted over at intime really shows off the missing dot at 110... such a shame would really love a good rep of this amazing watch.

Really, I love Speedies and I got a broad arrow GEN many years ago, when the prices were human...
I'd buy a good TDSOTM on the spot, but that missing dot keeps staring at me... (?!?)
I cannot look at the watch without falling on THAT missing dot... embarrassing...

I'm sure I read somewhere that the missing dot was being fixed for final release. Worth asking your TD anyway if that's the only thing holding you back.

still, 618$ for a 7750? not worth it imo,
it's 18.5 while the thickness should be 16.3

Seriously, how many SKUs could be built off one freakin' movement? 50? 100? More?

 

[blahblah484]

Looks like they fixed the dot. Any other flaws?

If you can live with the ridiculous thickness, and the price, then go for it.

 

[blahblah484]

Thickness appears to be off by 2 mm. Is that right? I think the gen is 16.5 and this is 18.5. How is it that there aren't good reps of these?

It's the movement. There isn't currently a movement that the rep makers have available to them that would allow them to get everything right. Movements are difficult and expensive to make/develop and hence no good reps as of yet.

Btw,
18.5 vs 16.5 is no small flaw. It is like the Grand Canyon, it is hard to miss. Not only is it a huge flaw, any watch that is 18+ mm thick is just grossly too thick to be practical.

dont buy it!!
this price alone... i mean what the hell? prices gone up on all watches like crazy and they still sell like hot cakes
if the watch would be accurate and genlike you could think about it but this...?

The gen speed masters use a modified 7750 as well which are thick. Don't know what movement you think Omega are using for their Chrono watches but it doesn't exist.
These omega reps are absolutely brilliant. Thickness is slightly off but that's the domed crystal and caseback.

Dude,
you have 6 posts....
I try and be helpful and I get someone that has been here for 2 minutes trying to tell me that I don't know what I am talking about. Do some homework and get back to me. There are literally dozens, if not hundreds, of threads about this very topic.

Thickness is NOT slightly off. This thing is an abortion gone wrong

My aborted child is beautiful. If you don't like thicker watches made from a 7750 movement, don't buy them.
