Except for the loss of interest (or perhaps finance charges for some) on $10k since March. Hrmph.
I decided to walk away of the list in one of these after the release but I’m really excited for all of you who are taking delivery!!!
I just didn’t have enough love for the subdial. The caseback and hands as well as bracelet sure look good though.
Were you not tempted to sell it to a dealer at a £2500 profit?

I'm pretty sure that is not something most of us would be happy doing. Fair play to @Civic4982 for walking away and allowing another customer to benefit from the watch at RRP.
To those wondering about fitting the bracelet onto a vintage Speedy, or saying it won’t fit, I present this guy on Reddit, who bravely agreed to try a swap at my request.
Let me preface this by saying I’m a little nervous about what could be an unseated pin on the 6 o’clock side, resulting in a sloped endlink. But it could just be an illusion.
The guy says the watchmaker at an OB simply popped it off the 50th and put it on his 321. He says the fit is snug with no wobble.
Scroll past the video for stills and another video.

It "fits" until the loose spring bar pops out and then both your watch and bracelet are on the floor.... I thought it fit my Ultraman until I tested it by pulling on the bracelet to see if it was loose, and it was. The spring bar will not secure into both holes.

Where do you get that from? Last I heard WF offered 400 over retail and one other offered less than list??
Which will be what I do should I not like it in the metal. For starters I have a great relationship with my AD and I wouldn’t do it to them given they are always good to me.
