PP Aquanaut. Sold for that reason - who knew they'd be worth a gazzilion $$? 😜

And these Zeniths are gorgeous - but same.

So both gone and making someone else happy (and maybe a bit anxious to keep them pristine when worn?). There was a similar thread somewhere about wearing NOS/pristine examples of any reference for fear of marring them. I have never been one to keep a safe queen for very long.

The Zenith is a stunner. I have been looking them up / that photo really captures the watch well.

Suppose it depends on how you use your watch, but with mostly brushed surfaces the Speedmaster does tend to not show the wear marks, while more polished watches much easier to see the wear marks.
