That seems light a really good rep! is the right dial a dual time function and would you happen to know if it works?

So this is called Speedmaster 57 right? if you can link some reviews about it then it would be great.

Thank you so much for your help!

No the dual time on the right does not work although I think there is a new version in the works where it will ... I read that somewhere. One is speedmaster 57 and the other is the 'new' moonwatch both with co-axial movement hence two sub dials instead of three, go to the omega site and you can read all about these speedmasters.

You can search the forum for reviews the same as I would have to do .... and have ... search, read and learn then make an informed decision .. in general the chrono on all the reps are best not to play with too much in the long run ..

true. I don't think I had any Rep. that have a good Chrono.
recently order two Tudor. we will see how that turns out.

Videos of the two watches ... FYI you also gett quartz speedys where sub dial is correct but then they are quartz, too expensive to rep the movement with the speedy to get the sub dials right

Dark side of the Moon which I think the OP in his review suggests the bezel is not legible however it is suppose to be that way ..gen

This was 2nd Hand (Maybe 3rd Hand...)
very good condition. got it for $1,100 CAD
that should be around $750 USD based on current exchange rate.
that's why I think. if the Chrono function and arm can't work properly.
might well not get it.
you can always find good condition Gen. if you dig into it.

The movements are the same in all the chronos ...7750 or 'lemania' regardless of the brand being repped ... Tudor or any other repped brand

That is again a different model of a speedmaster ... 'racing' .. different bezel.. dials etc ...

I have a pp 5070 chrono with a lemania heart that is good so far.

It does look nice but then posting a review complaining about the movement issues that are well documented is confusing ... like buying a quartz and then complaining that it ticks instead of sweeps

Thanks but I am no expert compared to the real expertise in this forum .. I just read as much as I can from the experts here ...you can read about the movements here https://forum.replica-watch.info/forums/movements.61/ and the issues reliability etc

this is interesting. it's actually slightly different than all the other ones.
but same issue on the right sub-dial.
thanks for sharing.

Not really an issue if you want this watch ... and dont play with the chrono then nothing is moving wrong
