I dare say a lot of the older members here have seen this before, but newer members may like to know how their speedy pro actually works
Google " the right stuff:insidethespeedmaster"
Part two is particularly interesting.

 

Yes, thanks for adding the links.

 

Wow, a brilliant link, thanks. As an owner of a Speedy for less than a week that was fascinating to read. I just need my hesalite sorted and I'll be over the moon!

 

Great big gobs of greasy, grimy chrono guts....

 

I read that article last week, just a few days after obtaining my 1863 Speedy. A great education for a novice and I at least have some grasp of what all those little gears and levers are doing when I flip it over to have a look!

 

Book marking.

 

Great read, thank you!

 

All future applicants to the forum will be required to take and pass a 100-question exam from the material outlined in part two. New members must score a minimum of 90% before they are allowed to create new threads.

 

That would mean no new members for at least five years. Best drop the pass rate to 10%.

 

Imagine all the posts asking about water resistance on the Speedy that will be avoided!

 

Thanks for the links!

Thoroughly enjoyed the article. Gives me a much greater appreciation of the Speedmaster. Thanks for posting the links.
