Tekidonc Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 A new Speedmaster is availlable on both Andrew and Josh sites (strictly same pictures...): Day Date Very nice watch, and as far as I can see, quite close to the original. What do you think of it? Replica Original
Corgi Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 (edited) Oh my gosh... that is a beautiful watch! I remember there used to be a rep similar to this but very poor, it definitely seems like they've made a huge improvement with this redesign. However, I would be weary of buying it because of the ridiculous amount of complications. The strain all of those must put on the already flimsy Asian 7750 could be very damaging. If you read the description of the movement, it makes no mention of it being the Asian 7750 "v2" with 28,800 BPH. I certainly wouldn't be surprised if this model has the old v1 A7750... in that case, I will definitely not be getting it. All the same, since I already own the SMP Chrono which is a very similar piece really... Edited January 13, 2008 by Corgi
rob_s Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 its the 7751. no idea how reliable that is...but thats what it is lol
Tekidonc Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Posted January 13, 2008 Many thanks Corgi for your comments. I wont' rush...
alanytical Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 The hour markers look off. Fatter on the rep.
lumpy Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 this is a watch i have been wanting for a long time......but i'm not sure about the hands...i have seen omega day/date with a red cresent date hand...and the flight insturment style hand...but not with this one.....i have been looking for gen pix....but to no avail. any omega experts wanna chime in. also i have seen pix of the black model with a silver tach inset...this one has black ??? l1
Rikske Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 @lumpy You are describing the previous gen daydate , the rep here is of the new daydate version and as close to the gen as can be (IMO). See the omegawatches website for pics of the gen.

See the omegawatches website for pics of the gen. yep....you are right..i was looking at the past model. bummer...i like the crescent hand better now to decide....what dial to buy?
lanikai Posted January 14, 2008 Report Posted January 14, 2008 21600 vph .. no ar.. still good rep.. same makers as the SOSF (lite version) .. although it would need to go out for AR genuine.. replication.. edit:.. given the scarcity of the correct spacing in the Omega's ..until the speedmaster date,.. sonner or later I will probably get this also.. what can i say..
2sweetau Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 This watch started my quest for the finest replicas watches. it was 2004 and when i saw it, i was after no other watch but since the better ones were do much better than the cheap copy of this watch, i had no option.. now after so long, the replica powers that be have given that very watch... looks like its not going to be an ultimate rep but its close enough i say. I wont buy it because my rule on buying A775- type movement but for thoese that believe the 28,000 BPH verious is some how better, i would advise all of mine new and improved A7750 are dead in quick time and all A775-'S ARE CRAP, JUST AVOID THEM.
