路No. It's a Speedy MK II. I stripped it down this afternoon in case I needed to buy any more parts and ignoring the fact that it was swimming in oil and had loads of bristles from a brush inside, the only other part I need (subject to closer inspection after cleaning) is a screw for the pallet cock, as one was missing. I'm on an 861 roll at the moment having serviced the Arsa, my GP Mk II and my soccer timer, the last of which should be cased this week, after I have finished adjusting it,
I'll also be having a play with the dial foot soldering machine - it's definitely watch week.
Nice. Enjoy your "working" vacation. Take lots of pics.

路As long as the stitching doesn't veer off and miss the edge altogether, and the leather sometimes has some glue or something on it, so oils don't always cause even color changes.
But for the price, WYSIWYG. Mine was very comfy actually. And the imperfections kind of give it a casual/vintage look vs. the really high end exotics which can look stuffy on a vintage watch.
Make your follow on donation to the world wildlife fund... Something tells me legal quotas were not a consideration in the procurement of the source material.

路Just received a visit from the post man and he left a beautiful Seamaster ref. 2635, cal. 354 bumper with black gilt dial from ~1951...
Dial has a nice chocolate gold shimmer to it, depending on how the light hits it.
Nice sharp case
Ordered a new strap a couple days ago...see this getting much wrist time after its service!馃憤

Lovely watch!
Just look at that amazing black dial doing justice to those gold raised numerals.
Deserves the right crown to complete the set!
Mine is exactly the same but without the more impressive dark look!

路Just in....but not picked up yet. Cal 294. Power Reserve. Original Box, too.. 馃榾
Can't beat these medallions:
One of the nicest dials Longines ever made IMO. Bit like the railroad Connies. Was told it was worn only a few times and put in storage..
Gonna have to sell a few off to replenish the hole this made...

路Yeah, me too, they are certainly few and far between. Do you have any idea on the production numbers of these?
