Did you buy this one piece to complete your 80s trilogy collection?

No - I sold my Holy Grail Speedmaster because I didn't feel it really was a Grail watch 😉

A sibling arrived today. Super happy to land another full set of one of the most difficult to find reference from the eighties :

Would like to see an owners thread for this model! My favorite speedmaster! Also found mine NOS with box an papers.. and some leftover blue sticker 😀

Anyone notice the irony of the 20 year flight qualified not being flight qualified?

Wasn’t NASA rfp back in 1965 exactly for that? Get qualified for space missions?
