Just chiming in here. I've had a beautiful j/m Holzer on my speedy, but I've added a new notched silicone stap. I think it flows beautifully from the case. I have a black one with red stiching as well. These fit perfectly and I think they rate. Currently loving the orange colour. Changes things a bit. Some hints of another dial perhaps..... Let me know what you think. Thanks.

Nice strap! Can you tell me the supplier? Might want to try one.

Sure. Sectime. UK mob I think. On ebay. Notched silicone straps. They fit beautifully in the lug. Cheers.

Agreed. I’ve been kicking myself ever since. Of course it’s been about 18 years I think.
Ugh- you could buy one for the cost of a nice dinner out back then 🤦

IIRC, they MKIIs were produced from 69 until about 72.

I miss my "racing dial" MKII. It always got comments from passersby. Mine had the original sunburst case finish as well. Truly gorgeous.

Would like another eventually, but they don't come up often.

Cheers
This one early 70's. Forget the rest. Mk2 are true sleepers.

I've been wanting one of these for ages, but was waiting for the stars to align... and they did. Very happy!

Got my vintage Mark II back with the sapphire crystal fitted.

Did a pressure test too, didn't make it all the way to 100m, but get far enough to know its splash proof.

I really like that dial/hand combination. Stunning looking watch.
