路Gentleman,
I recently acquired my first Speedy Pro. It's an unopened example from the 90s running strong and I could not be more happy with it.
There are, however, two curiosities:
- The reference number seems to have one too many zeroes, and it suggests that the watch originally came on a leather strap. In your opinion, could it be possible that the dealer simply wrote down a wrong number and that this is in fact a 3590.50?
- The watch came in a box that I have never seen before. The period correct boxes were also grey and made from (deteriorating) faux leather, but this one is larger than the ones I've seen before and there is a strange "stone" inside. Have any of you ever seen this before? Or does this suggest that watch, box and warranty card are somehow not genuine?
I would love to hear what the experts here think about this 馃榾
