    Hi there. In another thread I bought a NOS "Transitional" Speedmaster. I bought it because I knew it was all original and not hobbled together. It was expensive, but worth it to me.

    I'm still looking for one with a 321 movement, but something near mint or even near NOS would be incredible! An original dial and bezel would be supreme.

    Are there any dealers that don't B.S., or any watches you have seen for sale that I should consider? I'm open on price. But don't want to be stupid. I want the value that comes with something being correct.

    Thanks in advance!

    Kevin

    I guess it all comes down to 2 things:


    1) How patient are you?

    2) How much money do you have?

    However I believe some of the most honest sellers, maybe not dealers, sell on this forum.

    While money is a key factor availability is important. Can't recall a complete NOS cal. 321 speedmaster publicly offered for sale in the past 5 years. I am sure they are around and some may have changed hands privately but they are rare as hen's teeth.

    RAHT. Is that a new or an existing abbreviation?

    Well I have known certain 2915 to exchange hands privately for large sums of ::money::. A lot of times the best condition / NOS pieces are among collectors who trade to each other and seldomly visit the forums. Sometimes money can motivate people to break open that safe.
