    So it's identical to the legend except for the top of the dial? Or is it larger?

    It's ok but it doesn't give that "I gotta have it" feeling.

    I really liked these editions. They really take inspiration from the old Rolex Daytona 62XX exotic dial series. I have a Schumacher watch - not limited and a black dial, but I really like it. (Modified with broad arrow hands) speedy.jpg

    Love these variations of the classic Speedmaster. The white dial and steel bezel in the original post is a great example of an exercise in restraint.

    Just going from memory here but one is a 3301 and one is a3303 I believe. One is more highly decorated in the other

    I've always wondered about those with the more limited dial as pictured. Pretty rarely seen. Great Speedy Tuesday post in clearing that one up.
    @Vercingetorix that's very, very cool

    In my opinion I don't think it matters since I think they all have solid case backs. My 3507.51 has the 3301 and its timekeeping is spot on. It's been a great watch.

    One of my favorite drivers. I have most of his hats and some die cast F1 cars starting from Benetton to Ferrari. Also been to his Kartcenter in Aachen.
