    When i saw this 69 pre moon Speedmaster, I just got to have it. This has one of the most beautiful tropical dial i have ever seen. It belonged to a friend based in Thailand.

    The overall condition is very nice and it is untouched. Minor dings are visible on the case. The DON bezel is decent which turns to a dark shade of blue under natural light. The lumes on the hour markers are all intact and the watch runs well. A really great addition to my collection.

    Nice score! Never been a big fan of croc straps with vintage speedies but this looks great

    Many Thanks. It looks fantastic under the sun where the dial color turns to caramel. Cost me dearly but I guess that is what you pay for a tropical dial in this condition.

    That dial and that bezel (in fact the whole watch)::love::... has made me smile from ear to ear! I really like the lume on the hour markers. Lovely contrast with the brown of the rest of the dial. Very nice post to wake up to.:)
