Unless they create a clone of the movement these speedmasters will never ever look right. Spacing between sundials and thinkness are all glaring faults.

Thanks, but I’m more interested if anyone has knowledge regarding the availability of factory this watch comes from? The subdial issue with these reps is already assumed.

I think it's 8F or RMF or OMF or one of those factories

It looks to be the exact same case and movement and bracelet type of those factories

I owned one (black) the 8F variant

Trusty can’t source it, which is odd. I know it’s flawed but I want it.

That’s nice.
I thought it was good for the price but lots of things annoyed me

Bracelet is ass, swapped to rubber

Bezel is bad and wasnt aluminum but some weird plastic, the printing is bad (the 0 is thicker)

The crystal had some really weird blue AR that I've never seen before, it was so strong that and reflective that it reflected blue light

However the dial was stepped and quite beautiful..

I mean it's a xheapo 250 dollar watch. It's good for what it is.

I have a gen speedmaster reduced so I only bought it for fun and to see if I would like the 42mm case
Gotcha, I'll give it a shot... the one from Andiot is a CMF for around $300...

Astonishing the speedy doesn't have have a proper rep. It's the most popular watch from the second most popular manufacturer. Yet perfect reps exist of Frank Mullers and other obscure watches. To say it's not popular in the domestic market also doesn't stand up to scrutiny, I just got back from China and saw 3 or 4 different local people wearing genuine speedmasters during the course of my stay.
