Will VSF soon build Omega Chronos?

Since there are only bad Omega Chronos, I hope for a Speedmaster from VSF:) The OMF Speedmaster in particular are extremely bad from the watch lid! Does anyone know if VSF is working on Chronos?

There is a statement from Jenny (Puretime) that works VSF on the Chrono Clone Movement, but of course this is a daring statement!

That would be interesting, I have 3 Speedmasters on my wish list, current versions are unacceptable.

Nearer than you think
As far as i know Puretime said that a project to replicate the speedmaster movement was started and then abandoned a couple years ago, so they doubt that it will be re-started.

Still, the factories are being stupid, they have no clue about the incredible demand for this piece.
it's not gonna be like the daytona, which was incredibly succesful, but i think they could expect 70% of that success, and it's waaaay more than an acceptable return imho

if they ever release a good OOTB speedmaster rep with clone movement i'll buy 2 straight away

The release of a well done speedmaster replica with a reliable clone movement would be a great breakthrough, i bet it will have better success than the VSF clones that were just released recently, since there wasn't "as much" waiting and desire for them.

Well, since Chrono movements are a bit complicated, my best bet is that when VSF is done with Omega, it might release the Patek’s super clone movement (just a guess), then it may come onto the 9300/9900 Omega movements.
