I've been 'umming and arrring' over a Speedmaster Pro for quite a few years now.
We were away last week and happened to pass an Ernest Jones jewellers in a designer outlet shopping centre. I popped in on the off chance to see if I could ogle a Speedy and get my wife's opinion. Anyhooo, they didn't have a Pro but did have a FOIS. So, I tried that on and actually preferred it. My wife fell in love and I left with the bloody thing (couldn't quite believe it).
I'm fairly sure I got an amazing deal (about 50% RRP). So, i'm now a proud owner of number 2880 in pristine condition! I'm a very happy chappy.
I got married last month an have a baby boy arriving imminently. So, this was a quasi wedding present come 16/21st birthday present for the boy
(My wife got some earrings and a necklace)
