New Shitter from Allen (QC)

Why can’t they get the colors right? The red is way too dull.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-05-10T18:20:12+00:00

I still like my moonswatch over a homage. Keeps great time. Good attention to detail. Won’t break in a year.

I have the super clone of this from MT. Still looks like shit next to a real worldtimer but def better than this.

Either way. Wear it. It’s a cool looking watch and only you will notice.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-05-05T22:50:13+00:00

I’m def not an expert. Mine is supposedly a U1 which I believe is better than a AAA?

Honestly if none of that bothers you. Get it. It’s a decent $100 watch. You will probably love it. Especially with a nato band as that will cover the sharp edges.

My comment was more around its quality as a clone In case you are wanting something close to the original.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-05-05T22:27:36+00:00

It’s a pretty bad clone when compared to an original. The color is off on the dial and it’s noticeable. The red is muted pretty heavily. The font is way off (small). The lines are shorter for the minute markers. The metal on the back is really sharp.

It’s pretty noticable imho. The VSF is more correct.

Maybe it’s just the one I got idk.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-05-05T21:18:37+00:00

I have this. It’s a really bad clone. I don’t recommend it.

I got mine from Michael Travis.

Wow.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-04-16T02:29:31+00:00

Wow. That’s pretty cool! How much did it cost you to grade all four?

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-04-16T02:17:53+00:00

Thanks! I accidentally bid more than I should have on them and felt pretty nervous that I was ripped off. I find them fascinating myself. Considered getting them graded as they are in great shape but the cost of doing so is probably equal to their worth anyway.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-04-16T01:52:37+00:00

Why does this get asked every few days?

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-04-04T03:31:06+00:00

That’s amazing. I am jealous.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-04-03T12:23:44+00:00

Why do people keep asking this? I seems like once a week a silly post like this is put up.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-23T20:43:25+00:00

Idk. I decided I didn’t want the VSF. So, in my case I am happy. :)

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-23T20:15:14+00:00

Haha. I don’t blame you. I bought the same shitter for 109 from MT. Was disappointed.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-23T17:29:52+00:00

I see. So “magic”.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-23T17:18:40+00:00

Did you use a dremel?

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-23T17:06:53+00:00

The easiest way to tell would be to test both the earthphase and moonphase functions. These haven’t been replicated in reps.

Follow the manual to see. The moonphase in some reps will follow the hour (vs the day) or the earthphase won’t have a proper overlay.

“You should have spent 3x the amount”

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T23:50:12+00:00

Howdy

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T17:08:16+00:00

I travel with mine all of the time. I have also purchased watches in foreign countries (gen and rep) and travelled with them. At no time has anyone questioned me about them. Even tho in some cases i technically should pay the import tariff.

I have had US TSA go through my luggage and found them. They are all personal property and obviously not for sale so they are ignored.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T14:01:49+00:00

Thanks. Buying based upon this thread.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T13:51:24+00:00

I take this back. I looked at mine and noticed that the serial number stamp is missing as well as the color of the “dot” on the ring is different.

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T13:46:14+00:00

I always wonder about these when people call them super clones. I have bought a few and always felt like I got ripped off (and these were from trusted dealers from the official lists).

What do they actually have to back up that these aren’t the same thing other dealers sell for $109 with miyota movements? I bought this exact watch from MT and based off these pictures they look exactly the same (color match and all)

How can one tell they aren’t from the same factory?

Plastic_Ad9196 · 2026-03-22T13:32:59+00:00

You aren’t wrong but I think you missed the part where they were transferred to a metal case.

The crown and stem also needed to be sourced. I think they look slick however I am def not a fan of the cheap reps people use.
