Received Speedmaster Pro. Moonwatch

Recommended Posts

Hi guys.

 

I received this this weekend.

 

I got it from a member over at RG.

Saw the m2m and just had to have it.

 

Overall the watch is oke. The plexi is a little worn and has some scratches but ill hit that with some polywatch in a couple of days.

 

Or I'll swap the plexi with a gen one. ( think this will happen anyway;))

 

Here some quick pictures.

That's lovely, but whats with the sub-dials? Do they not reset to 12?

The one @9 is seconds and the Sub @6 mimics the hour hand.

 

The sub @6 freeze method will be done as soon

As I've got the guts to do it :lol:

Thats a shame they are not fully functional on such a lovely looking movement though don't you think?

The big crono hand does its job. And crono minutes also work.

 

Problem with the moonwatch is that there aren't

Any really perfect reps out there. But I really wanted one. And going for a gen was just not gonna happen anytime soon.

 

Wel it could but then my headstone would say

" here lies a man and his watch" :lol:

No, but some earlier Moonies st19 movements came with Omega engraving or stickers.

I have the same speedmaster with le mania movement, genuine gator strap and domed plexi, I haven't frozen the 6 o clock sub dial, as it doesn't bother me, I just enjoy wearing it.

I enjoy it massively and the timekeeping is perfect. This watch had been on my list for a long time.

 

I just have to open her up to clean the inside of the plexi. So maybe ill do the sub @6 at the same time The outside shines again with polywatch.

 

All i need now is to find a steel bracelet somewhere.

It's a finicky job getting everything back together and lined up correctly, but worth it!
