Hi all,
First post here outside the Introductions.
I received a call from my nearest OB late on Friday to say they had received one so I went to see it yesterday. Like many, I wasn’t sold on the photos but it was a different story in person so I didn’t think twice. It’s my first Speedy on a bracelet but it looks great on it and is very comfortable. I agree with previous comments that it would be better if it could be adjusted more easily.
Unlike most others I like the design of the cork strap. It does feel a bit cheap though and I don’t find it at all comfortable so it’s staying in the box(es).
I wouldn’t normally choose gold but I love it on this watch and wearing it I’ve noticed how its personality changes in different light. It’s very cool against the grey dial catching the light during the day and much warmer, almost glowing, against the dial which looks almost black in lower light.
For me, it’s a stunning Speedy commemorating a very special event and I’m very happy with it.
