The FedEx man just stopped by and dropped this off...








This is a 3594.50, Broad Arrow 1957 Re-issue, with a cal. 1861 and serial # of 48,39x,xxx dating it to ~1998/99... any of you Speedmaster experts correct me if I'm wrong. This is in great condition and love the stainless steel bezel and the not quite black, almost slate gray dial. Please excuse my sub-par photography, my camera just could not capture the color of the dial. Thanks George, excellent purchase!

 

That's a hell of a good looking watch.

 

Thanks...wait a minute now...lets not get the wrong idea about me...

 

Thanks Dennis

 

Beautiful watch, congratulation!

 

Wow, Beautiful.

 

If I were to buy that type of watch today (not typically a speedy guy..) I would choose that exact model...love the dial, the broad hour hand and especially the all steel bezel... Great taste.

 

Very nice!

 

Broad Arrow hour hand, and a Dauphine minute hand.

 

i love my 3594.50. There have been complaints that the hands are hard to read, but I've never had any issues with readability except at certain angles. And there's always the quiet satisfaction of winding it up.

 

Been interested in the Broad Arrow for a while, In fact when George contacted me about this one I had been bidding on one on the bay. His was nicer and ended up a better price. Never considered myself a Speedmaster guy ether, but now I have two...resistance is futile...the Speedmaster is a beautiful watch that has nice detail without being all bling, bling. In contrast I also have a Breitling Super Ocean, the previous model that came with the fully polished bracelet. Hated it and never wore it until I put it on a rubber strap and that changed everything, the steel bracelet is just too bling for me. Anyway enough of my ranting and thanks to all for the comments!.

 

Really like the strap combination there...and Speedy with the Vdubs...a great combo as well

 

Great looking watch. Congrats!

 

Very nice!

 

Thanks all for the compliments!

 

Now, we'll look forward to see some pictures with a sporty-looking leather strap!

 

Not sure this will ever go on a leather strap...I like the bracelet too much, it's very comfortable. I say this now but I have seen these watches on the Hirsch, think its called the Leonardo, with the curved ends...and love the look.

 

I am eyeing on this model,too. Congrats on yours......
