·Hi OF!
I have for sale today a beautiful transitional Speedy from ‘68. Hesitant to let this one go but as I just received a “grail” something has to go. I will be posting a couple others as well.
Beautiful step dial with lume intact, there are a couple of markers where some has been lost. Creamy hands and markers that look great in direct sunlight. Applied metal logo was a must for me!
Case is strong, likely polished in the past but not in my possession. DON bezel is in excellent shape with a slight blue/grey hue in direct light.
Comes on 1039 bracelet with 516 endlinks. Moderate stretch but another piece of this watch that was important to me.
Winds smooth, chronograph starts, stops, resets as intended. It has not been serviced in my possession and the 12hr counter does not advance so service is recommended. S/N is 26555676, placing this early in the Transitional reference per William’s chart.
All in all, not a perfect example but checks all the vintage Speedy boxes for me.
Priced at $8,750 USD now $8,250 and looking for CONUS sale only at this time. Price will include shipping which we can discuss preferred method. Payment by wire preferred or PP but buyer will be responsible for any fees. No returns, so please pay close attention to pictures.
Feel free to ask any questions or request additional pictures/video. DM is best.
Thanks to this wonderful community, hoping to keep this one within the OF family!
Cheers,
Jim
