This watch started out as a 57 Replica. Not liking the stainless bezel and broad arrow hands, I had the bezel and hands replaced with the modern versions. Recently I had the hands replaced with the FOIS versions because I wanted something a little more different. So, behold my Speedmaster with leaf hands, "special tail" sweep seconds, and 1998/849 bracelet. Also included is my Watcho Seamster 300, currently on a silicone deplyant strap. For some reason, the strap just seems to work for me better than a bracelet, which is odd, because I am very much a bracelet sort of guy. Tom
I think you can order plain white baton hands from Ofrei for pretty cheap. Those might look nice on that speedy.
