The Reduced speeds don't really have much of a following. The movement is an Valjoux ETA 7750 base. The blue dial and bezel is nice that's about it for me. Here is the Omega Listing - http://www.omegawatches.com/collection/speedmaster/date-day-date/date-chronograph/32128000
First of all that is not a reduced Speedie in the O.P. post. And the reduced Speedie never came with a 7750 movement. I had a 7750 based Speedie (the triple date) and they are nice watches available at a good price (these 7750 Speedies are a bit smaller @ 40mm than the moon versions @ 42mm) . The 7750 is a very dependable/reliable movement. The reduced Speedies came with an ETA movement with a chronograph piggy backed on to it. They are some what expensive to maintain and some feel not as reliable. The watch in the OP doesn't look too bad but I'd want better pictures personally. Just my two cents...
Most will prefer the Moonwatch but if you do want an automatic, these ones, the Speedmaster Date with the 7750 are the best of the bunch, I'd certainly prefer it over the Speedmaster Reduced. Depends what you want it for really, handwound with plastic crystal on the moonwatch or a sapphire + automatic on these ones.
