Im a vintage daytona lover but this makes me want a moonie too now :/

 

[Quawen]

Amazing build.

 

[chronomatic]

That's all gen build. Awesome Speedy!

 

[JNotts]

Congrats. This is fantastic.

In many ways sweeter than a gen because the parts are the same but you have built it for yourself........your baby!

It wasnt one of my favorites omegas to be honest, but once i wore, i then understood... You have to have a speedmaster moonwatch! Its simple as that...

 

[doncroce]

Love this watch! Well done

I once bought this watch as a "in between" watch. But love it so much I still got it.

 

[Ezio]

Dream watch aint it time to pass it on Hahahaha xD

Amazing build. I have one but it's not as cool as yours because I didn't build it.

I apologize for reviving an almost decade old thread but this is super super cool. I see [mention]Mr. Pap [/mention] is still active on the forum so a few questions for him:

Given the OMF speedmaster reps that we have now, do you still think a Gen case is necessary? Essentially if I wanted to do the same build would an OMF speedy case, appropriate case holder, and lemaia 1873 movement, and Gen hands and dial be enough?

Anyone else with any info on this plz chime in as well.

P.S. I hope you still have this watch, definitely one of the coolest builds I’ve seen on RWI!

Of course i still have the watch, i basically wear it at the moment, one of my biggest loves!

As far as i recall i have not seen a franken speedmaster using a rep case but maybe things have changed now and new cases are closer to gen ones? I really dont know...

If the rep movement is of the same thickness to the lemania i think using a gen movement holder this may be possible to happen.
