That 2655xxxx serial number is outside the range of a 105.003-65

 

That whole watch is outside the range of a lot of things.

 

Lol, professional dial, square chrono hand, incorrect serial. GUYS! I think it's a prototype!

 

That is the most original 105.003 I have ever seen. It's like I was transported back to 1965!

 

26,554,xxx is ok for a -65 according to mwo.

This watch though, is not ok

 

Non professional dial. Are my eyes fooling me because I do believe I see professional.

 

I think the movement and dial come from a 145012.

 

"The lack of crown-guards and "professional" markings on the dial, along with the stright lugs are three attributes these super-Speedies all have."


"There are Speedmasters and then there are Speedmasters. An automatic Speedmaster is pretty solid. A manually wound Speedmaster Professional is solid. A manually wound Speedmaster Professional with a 321 Caliber in it is really solid. A manually wound Speedmaster PRE-Professional with 321 caliber, straight lugs and no crown guards dating to 1965 is borderline epic. "

 

I mean what's there not to like? It's epic, well borderline.

 

second hand tells alot , mostly that its not original

 

Speedmasters = big $$$. Big $$$ = many shenanigans.

Hodinkee must be selling this watch!

 

What a shame it wasn't the same watch too! looks like someone bought it though

 

Someone must need some parts badly!

 

"There are Speedmasters and then there are Speedmasters. An automatic Speedmaster can be pretty solid and reliable, depending on the caliber. A manually wound Speedmaster Professional is solid. A manually wound Speedmaster Professional with a 321 Caliber in it is less solid than a caliber 861 but it was worn on the Moon. A manually wound Speedmaster PRE-Professional with 321 caliber, straight lugs and no crown guards dating to 1965 has never been worn on the Moon and is less solid and much less weatherproof than a Speedmaster Professional."
