    They should do a Club Sandwich with a sapphire covering over the tachy bezel as well- they always end up so sorry looking.

    @breitlingsource haha, Yeah I did mean the Hour Vision. The size and in-house were what I find great about it.

    how does the accuracy of a manual wind compare to a self winding movement? ie… how much deviations does this speedmaster get say per day(ave) and the total deviation for 15 days?

    Very insightful. Thanks. I’m thinking of buying this, but whats it like living with a manual movement everyday?

    You finally succummed to the gravitational pull of the speedy pro hey, it was inevitable :) I’ve been waiting ages for you to show this one. Do you still prefer your Schumacher? I must admit, that one is very very nice.

    A piece of trivia:
    Omega actually had to change the text on the casebacks a few years ago because it turned out that the Speedmaster isn’t the only watch ever worn on the moon.

    @1000lightyrs The Schumacher gets more looks, but the Speedy Pro is the Purists Choice… of course the Hesalite is the pure purists choice.

    The true moonwatch is the 3570 with the hesalite. Otherwise it aint a Moonwatch, period. Why pay over $500 extra for a different crystal, just pay less and get the real deal.

    @mogando25 The great thing about the 8500 and 8501 co-axials is the silicon hairspring; the wear is so negligible on the parts that it only needs servicing every 8-10 years so it will be even more reliable than previous Co-axial models. Kudos to George Daniel for the invention.

    Bought the same with a steel bracelet just before the big price increase of this year. Everybody loves this watch of course… And in my opinion, for a long time it was undervalued in terms of price. It’s one of the few watches that still uses a mechanical chronograph movement instead of an automatic.
    Great watch!

    what size wrist do you have? do you think the croc strap is a viable option for someone with a 6 3/4″ wrist?
