The person who posted the photo is known on Instagram for busting fake watches. Since he posted this as the real thing, im taking his word for it. However, Hodinkee left a comment and said that they have seen the real watch, but left no comments about if this pic is a fake.
Looking back on the previous release of the new Speedmaster Mark II. It feels like this one is missing something. It just does not have the feeling of new and fresh.
But like i said. I still think this one looks good, but....
Thanks for the extra info Patrik...and I really do appreciate you posting up this clear view, definitely gives me something to chew on!
I look at that and think the same thing...something is missing and not quite consistent (the thing that I noticed right away was the seconds hand and case proportion differences). I'd like to see a bit more "vintage-esque" influence in the handset for instance (those hands shown in the clear view are just too modern/PO influenced IMO).
I guess we will see...
