This just arrived about 2 hours ago.
My wife got it for my 50th Bday and this evening we leave for North Carolina where I get to drive a F1 for about an hour!
This is my first modern Speedy and I love the 42 mm.
I went with sapphire sandwich and have the new style bracelet/clasp
Sizing it was a bit of a challenge LOL I guess my eyes aren't what they used to be!

Congratulations on 50 and the new Speedmaster! Excellent choice of a watch for a few circuits around the track.

Congrats! I need to plan out what I'm getting for my 50th this year. Speedy wouldn't be a bad choice.😎

My 50th birthday gift.... Kilwins' ice cream for one

I'd think Speedy/F1 is a much better option!

I bought myself one of these as a late present for 45 and am loving it. I know what I want for 50, but not sure where the cash is going to come from 😀
