Seamaster 300 Spectre ''SPC300''

[Mr.JC]

Ok awesome. So a clone spc300 on a gen band, you're in for a pretty killer watch. What kind of power reserve do you guys typically see? This'll be my first rep, and I'm excited

The gen is reported to use two barrels and have a 60 hour power reserve. I have not timed my new rep from VSF, but my previous rep with the Miyota movement held a power reserve of at least 48 hours.

Anyone know if the two barrels even work, or is one just faux?

 

[Major Tom]

Yes, you’re right, the watch head stands out more on nato (more contrast).

However, on gen spec nato the watch width is too excessive ..

The width of the watch, over the nato strap is something like 5” lol (see pic). Which doesn’t look good to my eyes. I prefer how the steel bracelet folds around the wrist.

I will never understand the "Nato" thingy

 

[Yona24]

VSF. I like the graininess on the dial.

Well, there are definitly some watches looking excellent on a Nato.
Regarding the spectre I agree with you. Try to get the sleeve over the watch with Nato strap.

It looks like they may both work. I was just reading through this thread about the 8500 movement (and our 8400 is simply the 8500 without the date) and it looks as if theyre functional https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...view-of-the-vsf-8500-clone-movement-pic-heavy

 

[Foxxfire]

Yes, they are.
Moreover is the power reserve of the clone 8400/8500 about 50..60h like the GEN.

Looks awesome!!! Makes me all the more excited for mine. Is that VSF? And which band is that?

Thank you. It's a VSF. My TD Lucy did an amazing job procuring this near perfect piece for me earlier this year. I wear it exclusively on NATO's. Gearing up for Independence Day here in So.Cal, so I am wearing it on a cheapest NATO in red, white and blue stripe with yellow gold hardware.

Wear it well and often once you get yours .

Cheers!

So this is what to expect from Lucy, huh? Now I'm even more excited. I've ordered a gen nato for mine as well. I cannot wait!

Cheapest NATO looks to have improved their quality- I had a band from them that was the design Bond wore in Goldfinger on my old apple watch, and this looks much nicer.

That's a great look. The leather strap complements it so well. That's the look I'm going for. Love it! :drinks_cheers:

Thank you Dano. I cannot argue with good taste!

Leather strap is from cheapest NATO. There is always something new and cheap to try and switch things up. Currently debating on getting a black leather with yellow gold hardware. https://www.cheapestnatostraps.com/products/gold-suede-nato-strap-black?variant=8120714592355​​​

 

[Foxxfire]

Folks, there you have a good comparison GEN-Nato vs. Phenomene-Nato.
Personally I prefer the Phenomene-Nato because it's softer and smoother. Moreover the pinholes of the Phenomene-Nato are done better.

Thanks for the link and bookmarked. Surprisingly affordable too. How soft is it? I've been using the "Infantry" brand one from Ali and it is very comfortable.

It is super soft and supple. I usually put Chamberlain's Leather Milk on all my leather goods, but this does not need it out of the box.

Ok guys I'm a little confused about the MKS and V6F. I have the old miyota one and I'm upgrading it to one of these models. I've done a ton of reading and I keep seeing conflicting information and I'm hoping you guys can help me get some stuff straightened out.

I've read the MKS has a better braclet and NATO (flat links and no TM on clasp)

The MKS has a better dial (correct raised font, closer color and texture, closer lume etc)

I know the V6F has the super clone and correct power reserve and that the MKS has the jewet which I don't really care about. I'd prefer more accurate on the wrist than in the case back. I have read about the V6F and can not find any info that they have upgraded the dial and bracelet is this correct? Thanks guys and gals.

 

[kryckan13]

Yes, they are.
Moreover is the power reserve of the clone 8400/8500 about 50..60h like the GEN.

I tested the power reserve of my VSF CrPO with the 8500 movement and it came out at 60h and 40min.

The bezel ring at the MKS is to thick. In summary the VSF makes a more authentic impression to me.
Regarding the REP-Nato: Buy a phenomene Nato. Their Nato straps are very fine and smooth, nearly like silk.
Phenomen's Nato have a better quality than the GEN.

And NO, neither I am affiliated with Phenomene's, nor do I get any provisions. I am simply delighted by their quality.

I have the V6 Spectre with the Miyota movement. I noticed my watch was making a lot of noise, turned it around and saw this. There is a tiny screw between the glass caseback and rotor and an almost crescent wrench like piece next to it. Before I take this apart, does anyone know where these are from?
