It seems to check off all the boxes of what is just a bit missing from the standard moonwatch: automatic winding, date window, COSC certification. But it seems to go for less than your standard moonwatch.

Doing a bit of research the downsides are the larger 44mm modern speedy size and the debated 3313 movement.

There's one available on CWC and I am tempted...
Speedy purists would say the "true" moonwatch is the hestalite version. As you mentioned, this also wears 44mm which is larger than the traditional 42mm speedy but just buy and wear the watch that speaks to you the most since you're the one wearing it.

On another note... just picked this up the other day. Will probably sell it since I like the CHNR better
