The Speedmaster Date
The Speedmaster date is the "entry" model of the speedmaster line , it keeps the original lines and is fitted with a more "economical" but very good movement : the Valjoux 7750
Movement : Omega 1152: Based on Valjoux 7750
The options :
Dial : white or black
Crystal : only sapphire
Bracelet / strap : Either on bracelet or strap, as the other speedmaster choose it on bracelet as it would cost more to buy it after

the reasons to choose this one are :

Reasons NOT to choose it :
</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="25%">
</td> <td width="36%">
- Because of its excellent price / quality ratio : many other high end brands charge up to the double price for similar specs watches
- Because of its Valjoux 7750 "workhorse" movement
- Because you like "simple" chronographs
</td> <td width="39%">- Because you do not like the Valjoux 775x and you want a more distinctive movement - waterproof to only 30 meters : if you dive this is NOT sufficient
- Because of the reduced readability due to the metal hands (compared to the white hands)
