If anybody out there is a watchmaker and already has one of these, can you mic the hour/min/second hand posts? Wondering if the're the same size as gen. Also check the dial feet for same location as genuine if you can.

The Neutral Zone
Mine just arrived. Bracelet feels as good as my gen. Seconds hand defect is present but really unnoticeable if you don't know where to look.
Dial is matte and nicely printed. Lume is perfect.
I will update about the movement.
For the money paid is a steal.

I'd rather have it without that on the clasp, too. But I bought it mostly because I'm interested in tearing the movement down & checking it out.

I doubt they will offer one without it, it would be totally inaccurate. But I understand where you're coming from. I think the logo is cheesy.

I also prefer the standard SM300 (non Spectre). The standard version has polished mid-link bracelet which just makes the whole thing pop more on the wrist IMO

just found a funny thing about the subject title name of this thread and the other thread.

now this thread became a space mainly for talking about Seamaster 300 model which is actually use 8400 movement but the the subject title name is 8500.

the other thread became a space mainly for talking about Aqua Terra model which is actually use 8500 movement but the subject title name is 8400.

LoL????????????‍♂️

does this movement actually use the 2 barrels as shown or is it just decoration? Just curious of the real power bank if its close to 60 hours or more. (due to the high beat it will not match the true low beat high reserve movement)

Power reserve on mine is easily 55hrs. It’s a clone movement not deco plates
