It's a watch with a case and dial that correspond to a cal 5800, but just has some generic quartz movement inside. Here's the fake (or more likely franken, obviously) next to the real thing (43,200vph ladies electric movement).

The 3135 in my DJ was fairly freshly serviced at that point, the positional variance has actually decreased, as has the difference between on and off wrist. Runs much closer to the smart rates on vs off wrist now, especially.

Ah, they even accepted money to put a fucking Pizza Hut logo on the side of a rocket, so I really can't hold Ruscosmos accountable for Omega paying their way to remain relevant.
Let not forget the instance of a Speedmaster crystal flying off in EVA because it was never actually manufactured with reverse pressure in mind.
