Hey, whoa! That looks like a straight lugged pre-moon version. I bet the strap is really nice! Opossum leather with linoleum lining.

 

I like it but I think I like the moon watch better.

Yep looks like the pre moon. With the lacking of the profess on the dial and the metal omega logo only the logo is wrong :(

Looks pretty good. I know nearly nothing about Speedmasters, but I like the caseback and dial :)

 

Small edit: it looks like they've disabled the subdial at 6, so it looks more gen compared to the other Speedmaster replicas. Right?

Subdials are still spaced too far apart; though overall it looks like a decent effort in repping the "First Omega in Space" Speedmaster.

Gen below for comparison. Case back looks spot on from my eyes.

This isn't a rep of the pre-moon speedy, it's a rep of a more recent homage to the pre-moons. Applied logo is correct for this particular watch, as well as no 'Professional" text below Speedmaster.

IMO gen is still the route to go for the moon watch, though this would not be a bad choice, and one that might be added to my ever growing wish list.

Yep the reduced is with an automatic movement instead of the manual.

I think the reduced is the DD chrono module that everyone loves to hate too.

Is that one any good? Reason i ask is because there are quite few on chrono24 for good price!

The reduced is to be avoided.

they are not bad. But I would spend just that bit extra to get the manual.

 

You see a lot of people buy the reduced because of the price. And later flip it to get the manual because of the pedigree.

Can anyone tell if the Crystal is the plexi bubble or is it still the sapphire flatter crystal they used on the old speedmaster reps?

Think I am going to be saving up for one of these as my next gen purchase, noticed a seller on ebay in Japan who has quite a few vintage ones in stock, might even sell off a few of my reps to help fund it

The gen is domed sapphire like you'd get on the "sapphire sandwich" moon watch. Looks domed from the pics. Whether it is sapphire, mineral, plexi or whatever remains to be seen.
