The railmaster was in the window at the Trafford centre OB today.
I was going to try it on, until I got 'the look' from the other half. It was strange really as she was happy for me to try on a pre-owned Seamaster tri-colour in the Goldsmiths opposite just before that.

Last week I got a call to say there was a Speedmaster 60th available for me if I wanted it. The store was incredibly friendly and more than happy to put it away until the weekend for me, even though there was a waiting list.
I got to the store on Saturday and I have to say, it's a long, long time since a watch has impressed me so much after a long wait. Normally the thrill of the chase is the most interesting part of the purchase process, and I'm quickly disappointed with the watch in the end.
Not this time! Wow! I never expected to like it so much. The polished areas of the case give it such character, and the bracelet is easily one of the most comfortable I've ever worn. This is in contrast to the Seamaster 60th may I add. I sold that on at the price I paid to a member of another forum as it just didn't do anything for me at all, sorry. I loved my Spectre SM300 but not the 60th. The Speedy is a keeper though!
The size is absolutely perfect! This and the TinTin are now my favourite Speedmasters without a doubt.

This is the Bulang & Sons Cosaro Brown strap, even better color match thany other (posted here earlier) B&S strap.View attachment 462505 View attachment 462506
The strap pictures showed on the B&S website seem too bright, compared with the true product.
It’s more beautiful on the DIV wrist, thanks for sharing.
I will buy the same one for SM 60th LE soon~ 😀
Gorgeous. How could the general public have overlooked this masterpiece for 60 years? Have we been tricked into believing that divewatches and chronos look better on the wrist?
