    For sale is my Speedmaster 105.003-64. Mixed emotions about this sale, as this has been my fave watch to wear. I need to sell it to make space for some new acquisitions.

    Serviced March 2015 (just a clean up, no polishing or parts replaced). All functions are working properly. Serviced is
    Movement has 22M serial #
    Proper dot over 90 (DO90) bezel
    Min/hour hands have been touched up by a previous owner
    She's meant to be worn, not for a safe
    Any scratches captured by my camera are on the crystal and not the dial
    Black strap included (no bracelet)
    I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking
    Happy to answer any questions
    Asking $7000 + shipping (prefer to ship to USA but am open to ship to other countries)

    Can provide references. I’ve bought from several OF members and have 100% feedback on eBay.

    I recall reading that Ed White's Speedmaster was actually a -64 just like this.
    So you're selling the Ed White of Ed Whites! Wonder how close yours was to the one Ed White wore?
    GLWS!

    Interesting. Maybe I should keep it.
    Did he wear the '65 or '64?

    As I recall, a -64, issued in 1965. I'd have to search some forums to verify, but that's how I remember it when I had a -65 (sold in 1967). Some experts may chime in?

    I'm a little surprised too but am hopeful she'll find a new home! Adding more pics. I have another high-res pic of the dial I can email (I was unable to upload it to OF for some reason). Dropping to $6800.
