So I was all lined up to buy a PO 2500, then this little fatty showed up at a price I just couldn't pass up. I bought it sight unseen & fully aware of its magnificent girth. I've had the rotund wee porker for a month now and am utterly smitten. There is no other reason for this post other than 'Check Out This Big 'Ole Thang' 8605 movement (8500), 43.5, 21mm lug width & a glorious 17.5 mm thicc.

Hey buddy I bet it wasn’t $500 found at a outback flea market like your speedmaster was And what’s going on with all this rain in Sydney
