·Must admit, my first reaction to this thread was confusion....Speedy vs Seamaster? It was the 'vs' part. They are so different; just get the one that best fits your taste and lifestyle, duh! Then I scrolled through the comments, pictures, and testimonials. Then I abashedly realized I have both*.

·To become a legend, a speedy. But 145022-69 ST with hesalite back.
But it is not waterproof. Is it really important?
If yes, then Seamaster ceramic, it is so nice!

·One question I have in the Speedy vs Seamaster debate is whether the domed glass on the Speedy is more prone to damage? I currently have a 22-year old Tag 2000 and the bezel sits proud of the flat glass so protects it against knocks. Looks-wise I love the Speedy but the water resistance - swimming, sailing showering etc - and that domed glass worry me a bit.

·I'm still saying Seamaster, just a great variation to select, at least for me. Aside, all the Speedmastets look the same 😀
The post above is from almost three years ago.
You can see that I sold more Seamasters compared to Speedmasters.
Since this time I have purchased 6 more Speedmasters (Ed White, Straight Writing, Mark 3, -71, Gold Skeleton, and a CK2998). So no longer saying Seamaster, I am Speedmaster all the way 😀. And by the way, I would have never sold the Speediorite if it has a hesalite crystal.
