thy...i realized this fact some days ago - it all started when i became unsure that my genuine was a real genuine -now i am sure ;)
nevertheless i want to use the rep for daily usage

Happy endings :matty:

Btw, could you please post pictures of your OMG0036 when you receive it? I'm considering to possibly use the case of this particular model for my franken project and it would be good for me to have more pictures and dimesion data of it.

grillbrill what do you mean with "franken project" ?

what i can surely offer is to send you private message with pictures - that is for sure - i am for the time not sure if it is a good idea to post pictures here in public forum

In the rep world a franken project means building a watch from both gen and rep parts to improve the quality and/or the functionality of the replica watch or to create a fantasy watch according to the imagination of the builder. I think it is one of the most exciting fields of this rep game and posting about a franken project is mostly highly appreciated over here at RWI.

Thanks a lot. FYI Posting own real life / hands-on pictures of reps are highly appreciated on this public forum, too.

Hi
I have paid 200 AUD from a guy in Australia, and I replaced the insert by a gen one (60€). A gen insert makes all the difference.

Folks, unfortunately all mechanical Speedy Pro reps are way off regarding the subdial positions due to the Asian movements used. Should it bothers you, you should go on the gen or the (homage) quartz routes.

On the other hand, there are some acceptable reps of non Pro Speedy's, eg. https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...omega-speedmaster-racing-co-axial-chronograph.

does anyone know a quartz movement that respects the distances of the subdials of the gen?

Sander008 i ordered my OMG0036 now -- if u are interested i can provide actual pictures when i have it on hand

Hi Stefan, I'm interested in ordering a DSOM style from Trusty Time, and noticed it's relatively similar to your OMG0036 (to a novice like myself after some digging into it on the forums ha). Any chance you could send me dm me some pics as well as to how the watch looks when it's arrived and your opinion on it? I'm relatively happy with the QC pics on the site, so looking for an owner to give their opinion on a recent purchase.

Cheers mate :)

Bidding on a modern Speedmaster. Can anyone confirm if the replica bracelet will fit the gen? Not asking for speculation please - I could do that based on lug width. Anyone done it? Do the holes line up?

Where is a good place to find gen Omega parts? I read that compared to Rolex, finding gen Omega parts for franken builds is really difficult.

With the 3861 price bump the secondaries not there anymore

But check out the speedmaster broad arrow (not the re-edition) 3594.50 which should be around 2200 to 2400 trading level.

Those listings from japan over at chrono24, maybe by visiting Japan itself, with their used shops would get you such prices I believe so but COVID-19 is a beach and wouldn't let us travel so yeah
