Speedmaster racing incoming!
Got this today in trade for a Grand Seiko. I was a little wary of the trade at first as I tried a dark side of the moon on a few months back and it felt massive. This feels much more balanced. looks great too I think :) Bigger than my regular speedmaster but not too big

Thanks all. If anyone has been put off by the coaxial in the past due to size I would suggest trying one with the newer 9900 movement. The dark Side of the moon felt too big for me but this fits much better. I believe the case back is different so that watch comes in a little thinner?

Where is the brown racing strap from? It looks like a B&R bands one but the colour seems different.

It appears to wear as thin on the rust as your moon watch … can you elaborate how it wears in comparison? It must feel a good bit heavier? |

As an aside I have tried to love the DSOTM but that feels much thicker so I have never pulled the trigger, and the racing certainly wears thinner. Sent from my SM-G780G using Tapatalk

Any reason you moved it on? Did you prefer the moon watch overall? |

Huge congrats - love the SR and it wears nowhere near as large as the dimensions would suggests. Feels nowhere near as thick as the specs would indicate.
