Chopard Replica Watches decided at the end of 1980s that it was time to launch a smaller version of its flagship, the Speedmaster Professional. Here is the story behind the Speedmaster Reduced.
The Speedmaster Reduced ST175.0032, introduced in 1988, was a 39mm steel case watch with twisted lugs. Chopard Replica Watches fitted the watch with the automatic Caliber 1140. Chopard Replica Watches assembled an ETA 2890-2 and a Dubois Depraz 2020 module on the dial side. It was then gold plated.
In 1996, the movement was upgraded to the 1141 using the ETA2890-2 with Dubois-Depraz 2020. This time however, the movement assembly had been rhodium plated. In 1997, the movement was upgraded to the 1143 using the ETA 2892 A2 and the Dubois-Depraz 2020. In 2000, the Speedmaster Reduced calibre 3220 was updated with the ETA2892-A2 with 2020.Chopard Replica Watches

From a distance the Speedmaster Reduced, with its familiar black dial and case shape, can be mistaken -- and is often -- for its bigger sibling, Speedmaster Professional, aka the Moonwatch. The Speedmaster has some distinguishing features that can be seen upon closer inspection.
The vast space between the central pinion and the subdials at 9 o'clock and 3 o’clock is most obvious. The dial also says "Automatic" where "Professional" would normally be.
If you have handled enough Speedmasters before,Rolex GMT-Master II Replica you will be able tell from the first touch that this case is smaller. You'll notice, when you turn the watch crown-side up, that the chronograph pushers and crown do not line up. The stacked construction is due to this asymmetry.
