Happy Customer

I went for this http://puretime01.com/speedmaster-m...bracelet-manual-winding-chrono-movement.html#

It was the first time I bought a replica watch. I had no idea you could buy watches of such quality (my only other experience has been dodgy 10 quid replicas!) and I definitely wouldn't have taken the plunge if it wasn't for the wealth of information available on this forum so thanks to all involved.

I was actually looking for a Speedmaster Reduced (3539.50) and i know this is a strange hybrid but I wouldn't be comfortable with anything larger than 39mm on my 6.5 inch wrist.

It's pretty much the same as the 3539.50 only it says 'Professional' (as opposed to Automatic) on it and the dials are in the same order as the moonwatch (although same spacing as the 3539.50).

Regarding the watch I received compared to the one advertised. The watch has a 7750 movement and the minute and hour hands are slightly thicker. However, this was confirmed in advance and shown clearly in the QC pictures. (I'd upload them if i knew how)

I received my watch 10 days after payment was confirmed as received. Overall I'm really happy with my experience dealing with puretime and will definitely do business with them again.

After waiting this long for a subdial spacing to be corrected it can only improve from here. I'm sure you'll see the dial fixed soon. Plus. I like how the anniversary edition is spelled "Anniversar" and the 50th said SOTH! Not too bad of a TIN TIN though.

2 new releases on Trusty Time and they look great; Apollo 11 40th anniversary with correct gold 9 o'clock sundial and casebook (gen is platinum, limited edition of 69) and a newly-released Apollo-Soyuz (although the case back looks like the wrong one, on this one).

What do you guys think?

You're right, no display back on mine. As I'm new to reps I just assumed it was used in pics to show the inner workings of the watch and only food out later that some speedmasters have the display back case. It would have been cool but it wasn't a major selling point for me. I'd suggest contacting puretime about it, they may have it in stock.

^^ nice one BigBoo ! Unfortunately not a bargain. And the date window with the sunken date wheel is a very obvious tell. But it sure looks great..congrats.

I bought the racing dial version (red/white checkered around the dial). Should have it by next week. I tried on the gen last year at a boutique and always kind of fancied it. Never thought they'd get around to repping it so taking a shot. I'll post a picky when she shows.
