mf11 Posted October 27, 2016 Report Posted October 27, 2016 Hi guys, I'm looking for a cheap Speedmaster rep to start my Omega collection. Can you guys recommend anything? Many thanks. Michael.
Sogeha Posted October 27, 2016 Report Posted October 27, 2016 Speedmasters are notoriously inaccurate because the rep movements don't have the same sub dial spacing. There is a speedmaster with a version of the 7750 movement and reps of that might be better. Otherwise to start an omega collection, the planet oceans are fantastic.
kernow Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 You've been here 6 years! You should know by now that there are no 'good' Speedmaster reps. As Sogeha has already said a Seamaster PO is a good rep to start an Omega collection, or even a Seamaster Pro - the new ceramic ones are great.
pcardoza Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 Well, I think that scaring the OP away from a Speedy because of the dial spacing is a bit over the top. It's a significant flaw, but unless someone is taking a close look at it, who really cares? The OP says he's looking for a cheap rep Speedy to start his collection. He's clearly not as anal about details as many others are. I got my Silver Snoopy Speedy this week and can't take it off! It's a great rep, flaws and all...............
Sogeha Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 ^^^fair point^^^ It wasn't my intention to scare, just inform.

Since they don't have a small sec no one will even notice it's a quartz, and no subdial issue too.
