Finally got my first Speedmaster - 145.022-74ST!

Thanks! And you mean the plane? It's a Rockwell Commander.

·Looks very nice. The patina is nice. I'm curious why you chose the -74? Is it birthyear, or right place/time or ...?

The latter! Nothing particularly special about the '74 year, I had just been patiently waiting for a nice 70's 145.022 to pop up on the sales forums here at OF and one did two Fridays ago. Luckily I had also just managed to save up the necessary funds for it over a couple months, so it didn't take me long to decide to pull the trigger.
The super pretty and rare stepped dial is just the cherry on top.

Not stepped but it's the only domed dial with the same speedmaster font as on the stepped 😉

·That my fellow OF friend is a beautiful looking watch with character, history and the moonwatch legacy to seal the deal. Well done, I am super excited for you and I hope you wear the watch in good health.
I admire your choice as well. I made mistakes until I found the right pieces. You nailed it!
