Size 43mm x 15mm
Not sure this is actually really a completely new product or the same bad rep below from the last year. Maybe they just corrected the misspelled MASTBR to MASTER and released again?? However, TSwatch says this one is super clone..
(For the size TSwatch tends to measure it actually, so maybe there is possibility, the other TDs can say 13.5mm even if TSwatch says 15mm. For example, the recent AquaTerra, the other TDs say 12mm but TSwatch says 13.5mm which is more accurate. TSwatch video shows it is 13.3mm. Gen spec is 13.2mm).

... this rep is still a masterpiece and one of the best made dual time dressy reps (right behind the GP 1966 DT) and it is striking - just wears totally differently than the gen.
Btw, do/did you own a GP 1966 DT rep? If so then is it automatic or manual wound?
grillbrill if that’s entirely functional I’ll be very surprised and slightly aroused. Keep me posted!

TSwatch were very co-operative with me to find out the functions of this new release. They could send me 2 short video clips ([video]https://drive.google.com/file/d/11U53YMXZ1o8LX7H_sIK5xMfzCGwz2uP5/view?usp=sharing[/video], [video]https://drive.google.com/file/d/10GGU0y4gTMRpeBe-oLuz1pw9tX0pXEmm/view?usp=sharing[/video]) of the watch. Those reveal that unfortunately the second crown doesn't adjust the secondary time in this version either .
Today I received my Ailang 5809 watch. Seems all functions are working unk:. I'll post a brief offtopic review of the watch over here soon.
fftopic:
This is a mini-review of my Ailang 5809 White Dial SS watch which I think is a good and cheap (ca. USD70) alternative of the JLC Master Geographic. Sorry, but my photos of my watch are not color-proof:
Details of my watch:
Factory: Ailang
Bought: from AliExpress
Case diameter: 43.2 mm (without crown)
Case thickness: 15.0 mm
Front and back glasses: mineral crystal (tested)
Power reserve: 44 hrs (tested)
Lume: 3/5 for hour idices, 2/5 for hands (in my subjective scale)
Frequency: 21.600 bph (3 Hz)
Automatic: yes
Hacking: no
Accuracy: -15 s/day (worn out of the box)
Compications: all working
Turning the crown CCW adjusts all hands.
Turning the crown CW adjusts all hands except the hour and 24h hands of the secondary time zone.
Issue: minor misalignment between the minute hands as well as between the secondary time hands (see my first photo)
