NEW HRF Omega Speedmaster Racing Co-Axial Chronograph
- Thread starter Blackcalf
- Start date
Many thanks Kenny for the photos and write-up - really nice looking watch. I know it's pretty much gen thickness, but how does it sit on the wrist - does it feel high? Cheers.

Datewheel and watch height shots
It really feels slim on the wrist, believe it or not!

Would have been nice if HR plugged in a A7753 clone because those clones with a quickdate pusher do exist
That would have been a NWBIG rep

Cheers matey. Really tempted to pick one of these up ....
I'm looking at the DW and...

Same.
I really like those speedmasters. Something that can fit my puny wrists.
The DW is the only thing that bothers me
I'm assuming there is a large gap between the base of the dial to the top surface of the DW.

Hm, the date cutout looks a bit larger on gen.

anyone else bought this rep? damn I am slowly being sucked into buying it!
Does anyone know if HRF will eventually come out with the moonwatch version?
and why was this smaller speedy racing repped anyway? did anyone asked for this? I thought the reason of repping watches is due to its demand?
everyone which includes me. are waiting for a decent speedy rep for over a decade now, why can't they make that instead to get it over with?

I mean, as others have pointed out, you can’t really get a good moowatch rep without cloning the movement because otherwise the dial spacing is just off. Cloning a movement, though, is a much taller order than slapping a 7750 in there, hence the rep of the model that already uses a version of that movement.

sigh... that's the only thing I can do now, otherwise I would sell some my gen watches and rep watches again to get a speedy moonie, 1 watch to rule them all type of thing.
Will this HRF speedy look good on that uncle seiko Speedy with 19mm lugs? why isn't there a version with a SS steel band option?

Anyone wanting a steel bracelet for this have a look here at the one Forstner do for the Speedmaster.

its even more expensive than the ones from Uncle Seiko, I presume these are coming from the same makers correct?
