For those who really want the nice looking bracelet with shiny middle-links; ofrei.com offers the gen bracelet for $312,-.

Gen Omega Bracelets

Look for Speedmaster bracelet nr. 1469-811 on this page. (The gen reduced version would have a case nr. 3510.xx.xx)
Since they warn for misfits I am very curious if these ends would fit the our dealers reps' lug holes.

If it's true what some members say... that you can get the genuine reduced Speedmasters for around $500... does it make any sense to buy a $312 bracelet?

Maybe I'm wrong... but considering all this buying the rep for $250 doesn't make much sense, either. For around $100 - $140 it'd still be reasonable (just imho).

Personally, I'd go for the fullsize rep (if you have to pay the full price).

By Tor..
Thaniks for your great review..
I am totally new here.. yesterday I found this review and I said.. This must be the right place to ask a couple of questions..
I am not a expert in watches.. But I love Omega speedmaster since I was 8 years old..
Finally a couple of weeks ago.. I got my first genuine omega speedmaster (used)... I realized that this omega was different than others.. and I was worried it was a replica since I bouth it as a genuine one.
I did not even know that there was a reduced version.. I was just asking myself what kind of speedy I got.. because it is smaller than others.. uit has some different things I can see.. and so on...
But after a research and specially after reading this review.. I gues mine it is a speedmaster reduced... i HOPE GENUINE TOO !!

Is there a way that somebody can help me to verify authenticity in this watch..?

By tor.. is there a way you can help me?

Thanks in andvance for your help and thanks for having this forum.

Thanks.

nice watch you have there....btw dont try and take the case back off to look at the movement as it a snap type and it's a bugger to get back on without wracking the seal

I owned a gen (and loved it), unfortunately it stopped working twice within 5 years. I was also unimpressed with Swatch UK service and how they dealt with this.
My advice would be to go for the rep every time. Despite the differences your still getting a watch that may outlast a genuine!!
