    Well, they did say it was precious metals only at first... $50k still seems excessive, though.

    I’m assuming in the US? Nobody in the U.K. will even add me to a list! Anyone had a similar experience in the U.K.?

    Sounding like Rolex territory.

    I'd guess the 50th ann Apollo 13/Snoopy 3 will also include gold if they plan on using gold for 50th anniversaries. I'll probably have to sit on the sidelines again for that...

    Btw to the posters questioning the price of platinum Speedy, check out the 40th anniversary Apollo 11 watch. Only 69 made in platinum and over $100k.

    Balls to it for £7200 I'm buying a Black Bay 58 and a FOIS and spending the change on weekend break in Harrogate.

    Good effort, though perhaps a more likely option would be a black dial with grey sub-dials?

    Cool prediction, but I have a deposit on one and would likely ask for a return if it looked like that since it looks very stale to me

    Nice render. I know the hour markers are the square design like the Moonshine Gold model.

    Would be a winner if it had a gold, vintage-style AML and a flat link bracelet.

    It's just an amalgam of rumors floating around online. I don't claim any ownership to the ideas.
