    I’m finally a member of the Speedmaster Family. Largely in part due to @bernarddevos for being a fantastic seller/resource/guide. He couldn’t have been more patient and helpful.

    So here to my first official Speedy Tuesday with my new 105.012-65. I couldn’t be more thrilled:)

    Here is a smattering of photos. Just quickly taken with an iPhone X so forgive me for the quality.

    Indeed he is! I know it may take away from the originality of the watch, but to my eyes it needed a little touch. James H. came trough in a big way. He was a pleasure to work with. He messaged me all through out the reluming process to make sure we were on the same page. His reputation holds firmly true.

    Indeed I am:) Fortuantely my area looks to be just outside of the path of Florence which I am thankful for. Sending thoughts towards those in the path.

    Thanks dude! I’m so glad to finally join the gang.

    Ya know I thought I’d want to immediately replace the DON with a “better” one, but upon receipt, I really dig it. No rush to get a replacement. The Relume and Bezel go really well together. Loving it!!!
