Speedmaster Moonwatch Co-Axial - new arrival

[chronomatic]

Just found from PT new arrival very accuracy from its look. I think it is the good quality Speedmaster rep but seem the information case dimension is 42mm not 44.25 mm like GEN. Hope that wrong information from PT and this model should become Dark side of the moon coming later. Which I am waiting for the most.

Pretty nice replication of the caliber 9300! I hope they fix the case measurements. The indices are the biggest tell for me especially at 3,6 and 9. Overall a huge improvement compared to the ref. 3570 moonie with one less sub dial to worry about.

But on pure time it's for $500+. To much to my mind, with a bit incorrect subdials at 3 and 9.

Was just about to post that!
That's pretty ridiculous pricing methinks!

Is this correct? $528?? Also do the numbers on the bezel look grey instead of white? Maybe poor lighting?

Will have to concur. I myself am beginning to possibly consider acquiring a Speedmaster.

It looks pale and fuzzy, not sharp and crisp - and beware of decorated A7750 - take a close look at the pictured movement: glued center screws? and the other screws, drilled inside?
Just take a look at the "quality" of those screws

but than ask for $528 + $70 shipping to the EU

At this price-tag I take the plunge and get an AP Chrono - at least they look fantastic - or just go quartz.

Totally agree. The maximum price of this one should be around $200. And note that the KW CrPO goes for about $250, even the titanium one. And the decorations on the KW PO just screwed on the movement, so you can easily change the movement if it breaks.

How do you guys feel about getting a Rolex Daytona cosmograph with the black bezel to get a Moonwatch-like look that is closer to gen? Is there a good rep?

I think considering the chrono function $200 is a little low. I personally see this as a $300-$350 piece, that's IF it were a little better executed!

If it would be a super rep the yes, even up to $400-500 is ok, but this isn't a super rep, even it's the best we can get, $500 is too much. Maybe that's just a typo?

I certainly hope so!!

 

[pretender]

surely now a good DSOT can be made

 

[Retina]

i would get an ap over this. 500 for an inaccurate dial is madness.

 

[evilpenguin]

Pretender, that's a good point. They should be able to make an accurate DSOTM now... Right?

hoping for other renditions like the speedy 57 or LSOTM!

 

[mclarendude]

Love it, not the price tag.

This is great. People have been waiting on a good speedmaster rep for ages. Let's wait till v2 and we will have one hopefully. This version has lots of flaws for the price. Keeping an eye on this one. Very excited. For this.

Oh I'd love a Speedy '57 rep - especially the titanium version, white with the blue hands. Sexy as hell!

 

[whoischich]

...but not at $500 though!
