·Hello everyone,
I hope you’re well.
I’ve owned several speedies in the past, mostly modern and a couple semi-vintage.
I fancied dabbling in something considerably older and came across what looks like a ‘Pre-moon’ variant.
I’m by no means an expert, but the hands on this one clearly do not look like ‘Speedmaster’ hands. They look like vintage Seiko hands to me?
1. Is it that there were some pre-moon speedmasters fitted with such ‘Flat tipped’ hour and minute hands and a second hand that is very plain?
2. Is this even a pre-moon speedmaster? Due to the ‘shallow’ caseback engraving I assumed it was. I did wind the movement and it felt and sounded like a Speedy.
Unfortunately, open case back with serial/ model designations could not be provided by the seller.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards
Al
