[QUOTE="oexing, post: 177472, member: 1493"] It is not a concern to me about total original Smiths or not, just wanted to know what you meant by "Indian made EXACT copy ( have handled one and they are well made )" so these are not EXACT copies as they are magnetic. You can see they are deeper than the originals and the weight is less. But certainly they are great value. Talking about Chronometrics I think you can get some with stepper motor inside and the typical indication in little steps well-known from real Chronometrics. It is everybody´s choice what they want to spend their money on, I don´t care much about matching numbers, cannot , as my collection of pieces comes from unknown bikes. Vic [/QUOTE]
