    Hi gang!

    I picked up a bit of a beater SM300 on eBay, and turns out it has the wrong caseback.. The rest is alright, but I wouldn't mind making it (more) correct.

    So, I'm looking for a caseback for a 14755-62. I could do with a -61 too if necessary, but -62 would be perfect.

    I have a stock pile of parts (mostly speedmaster, but some seamaster stuff too) that I'd be willing to put on the table for trade, and of course, I'm also open to straight up buying.

    I'd very much appreciate hearing about one if you come across such a hen's tooth!

    cheers,

    Joel

    Some good leads, but haven't found one yet.

    Maybe today is the day?

    Sorry, I read 14755-61 :oops:
    I need to change glasses..
    However is really interesting because the 14758 is a dress watch with a completely different case and caseback.. Maybe an error of production?

    Wait, it’s a completely different caseback.
    Here for comparison mine 14755-61.
    Sorry for the false alarm

    It's been 5 months and the hunt is still on.

    Maybe you have what I need in a parts bin.

    Maybe you feel sorry for me.

    Maybe you have a time machine, in which case, we should talk!

    Anything out there that's worth talking about? I can also trade speedy parts instead of $$ if that's your thang.

    Here's a song to lull you into a mellow state where you might be more sympathetic to my cause...
