    This just in, my first straight lug Speedmaster, a 105.003-65 fitted with a 7912/6. :)

    I have known and admired this watch for 6 or 7 years as it has come from a very good friend of mine. He decided to finally let it come to me as he is in the process of raising funds for the perfect 5513.

    Nice score! I don't really see any flakes coming off the markers yet, and floating around inside the crystal. You can wear it for sure.

    Sweet, you got a fine watch but here is good question would you sell this to fund the perfect 5513 or not? It would be a tough call for me but either way you're a winner

    Well personally no, but I´m not into vintage Rolex and I didn´t own this already for the last 8 or 10 years. As with most things in life when you fancy a change you fancy a change, right?
