Really nice! Amazing you scored the 20mm 1168! Am only able to get the 18mm 1168 fitted to my Trilogy Speedy.
Had one of these in my hand at the OB in London in 2016. So close to buying it but passed at the time. Big regret
Totally agreed. While there are a couple I respect (FOIS, trilogy, Snoopy, Mitsukoshi), I've never actually wanted to *own* any modern Speedies except for this one. The meteorite is absolutely perfect given both the space connection and just how awesome it actually looks on a watch. Incredible catch, congrats!!!
I was just saying today that we should start a "i saw this, it was a good deal and i regret not buying it" group
Ok, more pictures to come Haven't been so excited about a modern Speedy since the Japan Racing I believe
So interesting seeing you being so excited for a new watch. But yes, that one is special. Inverse Panda with the shine of the Meteorite. I think in real and especially in the sun this watch is a stunner . Keep on finding things
As promised, here we go with some more pictures. This dial... The modern steel bracelet (1998/849) is way too massive and heavy to my taste so I guess it will stay NOS, unlike the watch. The birch suede leather strap complements perfectly this unique Meteorite dial and feels warmer for the chill winter days
That watch is a thing of beauty, I have managed to track down a NOS that a collector has had tucked away for a bit. Should arrive to me this week, I will definitely post some pics when it is in my possession.
