What camera was used for this? The detail is crazy
Fantastic photos from Travelller, as always.
Thanks, gents! 😀

Almost all my wristshots are done with my ~2yr-old LG V30 Smartphone which has a so-so imaging system, however I really try to find some good lighting for every shot which is key to better results. 👍

I recently managed to get the 321 and I have to say it is just fabulous!

I’ve had mine on leather for the Fall/Winter, and your photos have me excited for the swap back to bracelet in Spring

Congratulations!

Thank you - I'm loving the bracelet I have to say. The OB manager kindly ordered the black alligator strap for me but I am no hurry as I am enjoying this so much!

The watch looks wonderfull, the more i look at this thread the more i fall in love 😒
I have one concern though.. Big charm of the Speedmaster ist some sort of patina that it develops over time. Tritium Lume, Plexi crystal, Aluminium bezel , SS case, everythings fades, scratches up, ages over time, gives the watch a worn and warm look.

I am curious.. now that 2 years has passed since release of the new 321 EdWhite, are there any photos how the watch ages over time?

I wish I could show you my battered up 321, but I love the way it looks. Mine is a year old now (near enough) and it doesn’t look vastly different to how it did when it came out of the box - aside from a scratch I stupidly caused on the clasp. It is my main daily watch.

I tend not to wear my watches hard anyway.

the watch has some warmth anyway due to the slightly aged lume. I love it for that as it gives it character that I don’t get with many other modern watches.

my hope personally is that I can keep it this way. Todays shot on leather strap!

I spent some time yesterday taking macro shots of the 321. What a watch! I could look at the movement all day. The more time I spend with this watch the more I love it. Here are some of the movement shots.

Those blunt crown teeth... 😒
You are probably the first person who has got the "A-R" regulator centered 😗 😁
congrats 👍

…isn’t the position of the regulator arm determined by the rate of each individual movement to adjust the accuracy? His just happens to run best at the center position.

Any truth on discontinuation rumors?
2 month ago there were 30 NIB available now, watches in chrono24, now only 6.
