    So it was you, who ended up getting it :) I followed it as well and actually created a thread in here about it. That was the first listing, where it didn't sell. I think it was a very nice catch for the money. This was actually the third time it was listed. Awesome that it went to someone in the OF :thumbsup:

    I actually found the thread after making the purchase. Have been much out and about lately so I did not research it as well as I normally would have. Found your thread on a Google search :eek:!
    Looking forward to picking it up in person in Copenhagen on December 12. I have had it shipped to a friend there.
    Cheers!

    Nope, and not Cold Duck either. :p I'd tell everybody what it is, except Roger (@Baco Noir) and other Cab fans might pass out. :D (okay, a slight exaggeration)

    Not technically bought today (got it last week), but first chance to snap a picture of it. Much thanks to the talented Mr Kringkily, a long wanted Apollo 13 "Snoopy" Speedy in wonderful condition.

    Having more luck than I thought on parts. Bought a dial today to swap out the horrible redial.

    An unveiling to come at the weekend, but here is a clue:

    Measuring a summer's day, I only find it slips away to grey.
    The hours, they bring me pain.

    I had since before an Omega Bullhead with a damaged dial. Now, after 7 years, I suddenly got an opportunity to upgrade my collection with one with flawless dial!

    Older than that and the dial is not orange.
