scottjk 0 Posted July 24, 2018 What version of the ST105.012 is currently considered the most accurate to the original? I also noticed that the 'original' moonwatch potentially had a brown face but the ones Buzz and Neil wore seem to be black face. Any moonwatch gurus know?

Quokka 0 Posted April 5, 2019 Anyone know the answer for this? I’ve been searching for ages for an ST105.12 lookalike with a functional hour subdial at 6 o’clock x manually wound. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I for a long time toyed with the idea of buying some random vintage watch with he same or similar lemania in that I could use as a base for a franken build and ended up finding a used gen cheap on WUS so bought that instead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
