    Mr. Talking Hands himself says so.

    My first reaction was whether it's really the greatest watch ever made with so many...

    Perhaps that's what makes it the greatest... abundance like a McDonald's hamburger or iPhone or Nike Air Jordan or feathered hairstyle or acid washed jeans or Pine air freshener hanging from the rearview?

    Don’t think that will happen :D

    But now that you brought it up; this is definitely the greatest haircut ever conceived:

    The real question is not whether it's the greatest watch ever made, but whether it's the most interesting watch ever made? Hmmmm . . . .

    "Greatest" is perhaps a bit over the top, but most consequential is not a stretch.

    Not the 1861 either. No tritium. 861 for the win - tritium and arguably more reliable than the 321.

    I’m confused. Are you talking about the Speedmaster or the hairstyles of those fine astronaut gentlemen? Didn’t we just drift this thread from watches to hair? :mad:

    I think Generic .... from origins to current day and at least some of the variations of a very strong theme......
    3861 does tick a lot of boxes though despite the nay sayers....

    How else, I use the edges of my wallet sized photo of you to scrape it off the Hesalite once dried. And then a quick shine with Polywatch of course.
