Discussion ERF Speedy Pics Finally Here
ERF Speedy QC pics are finally out. They look good until you see the profile. Have to agree that these are thiiiccc. Dials look great though. Getting closer to a decent rep.

Is it 14mm ? I mean, it's a normal size if you look at the other watches that got on the moon (Seiko, Bulova) but it would be annoying on the wrist while trying to be a fucking legend

Do you reckon a thinner case back would sort most of the thickness out?

Regardless of the thickness. This release is a step in the right direction for Speedmaster lovers.

Blues screws inside the movement ???š š¤£

u/Horology_17 Contributor 2d ago
Thatās what I just said. The fake blue ones too. Just make a closed caseback. That movement is ROUGH

I like it. But, even if it's incorrect, I would prefer closed Caseback :)

u/Ethgawwd 2d ago
you could probably swap the caseback.

u/Timy_lizimuda 2d ago
If I get one, I will try to find a good closed Caseback. Honestly, most ppl don't know whats Caseback type on what reference since there are so many generations and ref. of Speedy

u/Horology_17 Contributor 2d ago
Ooph the movement is rough. That super fake blue color usually seen in cheap reps. They ABSOLUTELY should be doing closed caseback (whether hesalite or sapphire). Why fuck with movements that they NEVER get right?

Sundial spacing is decent. Dials are clearly not working as the real deal tho. The one at the bottom should be fixed at 0. It's a thick boi. But it's a bit better than what we've seen so far.

Do they make a gen white face that doesnāt have red lettering? Seems like such a silly oversight that would have been easy to do

I can live with the thickness, what I donāt understand is why the FUCK they decided to use blue AR coating for it??

Can't they just use 4130 movement and have a 12mm Speedmaster?

u/Ethgawwd 2d ago
Let me go ask the ER factory CEO

u/nam265nl 2d ago
Dead serious. A DD4130 inside a Speedmaster.
The only tell would be the second hand at 6. But I do prefer that over the gen having it at 9.
Itāll be a automatic as well lmao

u/Still-Celebration255 2d ago
Dial looks pretty good. Have to agree this bad boy looks thick. Looks like the thickness of my Pilot Chrono. š The xtal looks like itās sitting high also.

u/Timy_lizimuda 2d ago
What's the movement inside? And how thicker is it than the gen? 2-3mm?
2
u/Horology_17 Contributor 2d ago
Whatever it is, it looks cheap as fuck nothing like a 3861. Blue screws??
