    I have always loved the Speedmaster Day Date 3520.53.00. Has anyone got one and what do they think of it? I am thinking or purchasing one myself.

    I had a friend who had one and he liked it a lot. I think there is one for sale on the forum by @ChicagoFrog ?

    Tritium dial versions can be quite stunning - serviced a few that were quite nice. Movement is of course extremely reliable and can be very accurate. IMO if you like it there's no reason to hold back.

    Cheers, Al

    How can I tell if it's a Tritium dial version? Thanks for all the replys so far from people!

    Often the luminous material will turn a nice yellow colour on Tritium, where it won't on luminova dials.

    Does anyone have any idea on values of these? What would you expect to pay for a mint, with box and warranty card for one of these?

    Mine was without B&P and at least in Spain it still possible to find the tritium ones for 1600-1900€

    As Al said great watch and reliable movement
