It’s beautiful in the metal.

This crystal should be put in to all other speedies.

This will be a great rotation piece with the white.

I like it a lot. I will probably be adding this to my white one and hesalite as soon as I pay for my NTTD..
Finally got the white one back from Omega service and the first thing I did was see if it has the symbol on it like these do, it does not.
Edit again, I'm pulling the trigger on one, my OB says within two weeks.

You will find it very easy to wind compared to the standard 42mm crown guard case.

I was referring to the stiffness of the springs of the newly rebuilt one vs the month old one. But it does look easier to turn.

I'm referring to the ease of accessing and handling the crown, a straight lug case crown is just easier to turn.

Lovely. I'm jealous. Although I guess that could be remedied rather easily. 🤔

Gorgeous, it would be a toss up between this and the the new 321. But on price the new fois wins. I'd love one.

That’s my pet peeve with the 3861 Pro. I find it a b**ch to wind.

I don't find them hard to wind as such, but what's interesting is that I have three new ones and they all vary in resistance. The FOIS is in fact easier without the lugs.

Looks beautiful! I have 2 seamasters (traded in a speedy I used to have), but if I were to get another speedmaster, this would be it!
