How Many Speedmasters Do You Own?

4 at the moment .Have had a few over the years, various Moonwatches and MKii. Never a 321 though, just one would be nice to have in the rotation. Of the four the '76 Moonwatch and '70 racing dial MKii are keepers. The '76 was my first proper watch and worn daily for many years, it ain't perfect but I have a lot of history with that watch. The racing dial is a "one previous owner" and finally satisfied my long frustrating search for a decent unpolished example, again not absolutely perfect but just right for me. The Telestop I bought because I found that watch in the wild disguised as a normal MKii. Enjoyed bringing it back to original but never wear it, sometimes the journey is just more interesting than the destination. The '91 Speedy is a recent acquisition, have had a few later tritium 145.022/3950.50 and like them as an everyday watch, vintage look without excessive price tag.

Eleven total (one 861 vintage, the rest are 2017 to present releases). Five are LEs, three are special Adam Lewis mods, a New 321 Ed White, an Apollo 8 and an original MKII which I've had from new since 1973. The easiest to wear and the one that just feels right is the New 321, the newest of the lot. I have no real interest in old 321s, birth year watches, or other esoteric details like particular dials (tropical or otherwise), bezels or bracelets. That's fine for others but not of interest to me. I buy what I like and prefer to have the full kit. I am always interested in what rabbit holes others go down to get whatever they feel will scratch their itch.

“Zero” and I’m OK with that.
Just wondering what's you doing here. 😉

Title says "how many". Zero doesn't qualify as an answer IMHO.

We're not!

This needs to be rectified with a purchase of a Speedmaster!
Don't we have a Committee or something similar that pays personal visits to these members? 😁

According to the Automobile Industry and the U.S. gov’t zero must be an actual measurable amount since they classified some vehicles as Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (PZEV). Even though we both know there is no such thing a “part” of nothing. 😉

My answer depends on how you “define” Speedmaster and “who” is asking. The answer is usually “zero” and that is why I “need” one...

Or, the answer could be from one to four if you count Mark 2’s 5’s and such. So hard for me to know the answer. Mental gymnastics can be so exhausting…
