    Today I received a package from the one and only Kringkily! You guessed it, I am the PROUD owner of my first Speedmaster. This is the 3570.50, just as I wanted. I could not be happier with it or the dealing I had with George, class act all the way. I really love this watch. I have small wrists, at 6.5" so I was a little worried on the size, but I think it worked out ok! I love the bracelet, but I am a leather guy, so I immediately switched to a vintage style brown leather for now.

    Thanks for reading!

    You lucky man! I'm hoping to join the club sooner rather than later. Patience is a virtue so I'm told.

    Hey usfpaul82, nice looking watch!
    When I EVENTUALLY get my first Speedmaster, I would like to get a nice brown leather strap too. May I ask where you got yours and the buckle?

    Thanks,
    Lou

    Thanks for the compliment. I picked this strap up from BandRBands. They will come up with a Google search. Buckle is the 18mm satin from Otto Frei.
