    So the second watch arrived today.

    I have been after one of these for a long long time, looking for best possible one to get. Well I stumbled across one on eBay that was new and unworn from a UK seller. Well today I went to collect it from its owner, it was bought and never ever worn it has all the stickers on the watch.

    it has all the tools, box, papers, the lot so after we agreed a price it was collection time.

    I will post more pics later. Sorry about sideways pics they were uploaded from my phone.

    What are all the tools? I'm guessing one at least is a springbar tool but I'm not sure what the rest are

    Got some pics of the movement, I think this is the only execution of the Calibre 3201 movement (correct me if I'm wrong)

    It's a watch which is undervalued now...once they are all gone...prices will climb...besides...it's one of the nicest modern Speedy....If I can afford....would love to add the yellow, pink gold and white gold to form a complete set....but that's just a dream...::money:: ::love::

    The main thing is that movement I think. It's the only speedy that has it.

    I think its also one of only a VERY small number of chronometer rated manual wind Speedmasters, the Calibre 864 used in the white gold Apollo 11 25th LE 1/500 Speedmaster
