@@APFuglsang yeah im sure the original is more satisfying to wear ngl , actually was just about to buy an original one and not long before had a financial emergency so had to use up a bit of savings , so that really made me think “uhmm is this plastic-y watch worth it?” I wish it felt a bit more premium or durable it would have made the purchase decision much easier.
Yeah, when on a budget It can be quite hard to justify since its all plastic, especially when you can go for a Seiko 5 sport instead. Wich is a metal and an automatic.. But it is hard to beat the design of a speedmaster 😳
The timekeeping function is run by quartz tech. Whereas the chronograph function is operated by the built-in mechanical system. Essentially, it's a hybrid movement.
The light grey is fake, for future reference you can tell by the chronographs (the small little clocks in the dial) the top two should work and they should be resting on 12. Compared to the other which are resting on different numbers. Also on the original the area surrounding those chronographs looks clearly sunken but on the replica its not (altho its trying to fake the effect).
It’s plastic (very cheap and not worth retail) and currently very popular (scalpers have inflated prices on the internet), so there is a market for them. I actually bought one for $25 out of sheer curiosity. I might wear it camping or hiking, just a fun watch I can destroy.
Wherever there is a market for it, and often you wasnt able to go to the store and get the real deal because of High demands, i see why some might go online and order a knockoff
Just above the Swiss Made - there is a imprinted Swatch patent on the Mercury model. I did not see that on the moon model. Moon model is fake? Amirite?
Its hard to tell if it is or isnt without havent a real next to it, but i Can tell that the bands are pretty lose when you set the time compared to the real one, the strap and bezel gives it away too, the text are pretty fade aswell like the “printer” didnt have enough ind when applied
I get your point, but man nobody would even notice that from a distance. And you wont be comapring the watch side by side with the original while walking right😁
Noone ever answers on these videos where they got the fake for 25eur. On ebay you can easily get fakes advertised as real deal for 150 - 200. But where do you buy for 25???
That would be a replica of a real speedmaster, this the MoonSwatch mission to moon here is a knockoff of a Bioceramic watch, so have to be plastic, since the original is.. Well plastic. :)
@APFuglsang I was holding the Moon replica with metal case , and sapphire glass , 10x better quality than plastic ceramic also movement was ronda only 100 $
