£5 Speedmaster

Hi all

Back from service and repair by James Hyman to the minuet lume

Left the dial as is with the lume plots

Added a 1037 bracelet (Thanks to certain members)and repro no 6 end links

The story about being found on a car boot for £5 wasn't quite true it was a case of Chinese whispers and dealers liking to gossip

The actual story is it belonged to the sellers friend who sadly passed away he took it to some dealers on the car boot to find info on it hence my friend seeing it

My friend was contacted again as they found he box it came in which I bought as well
