Whats up with the Speedmaster choices?

[Guest REPPIN]

Am I the only one that thinks the speedmaster Professional should have an "ultimate" version. 

 

Were talking about THE MOST iconic Chronograph of the last 100 years (maybe besides the Daytona) 

 

And all we can get is a mid-level copy with a rehaut deeper than a swimming pool. 

 

Does anyone make a really great rep of this watch? (Reference # 3570.50)

The subdial spacing on the Speedy makes an accurate rep impossible without completely cloning the movement.

 

I do agree with you though, I love the Speedy Pro and would love to see a good rep done.

The unfortunate truth. Don't suppose the reps could just have non-functional subdials ?

I rather have a chrono with inaccurate subdial spacing than one that doesnt work.

I think maybe a part of it is that the gen is soooo common and relatively affordable, particularly on the second-hand market.  (They've been making them by the boatload for the past 40 years)  Add to that the pain of having to clone the movement, I don't think it's a massive priority for them.
