If this is your first Speedmaster, be warned of the First Speedy Syndrome which affects nearly 100% of new owners. The Syndrome is characterized by at least 4 of the following symptoms:

1. Wearing watch to bed the first night
2. Buying multiple straps and bracelets (up to 10 within the first month has been reported)
3. Spending more hours each day on Speedmaster101.com than on IG
4. Eyeing the rest of your watch collection thinking how many you need to sell to fund the next Speedy, which may be 321
5. Spamming WRUW with all the new straps and bracelets
6. Wearing short sleeve shirts in all seasons

The only known cure is passage of time, but the syndrome will likely relapse upon purchase of next one....
Enjoy the watch!!!!

hahaha way too accurate😗😗

Got the watch yesterday! Really quite stunning, the case is very sharp and nice and the dial is also in perfect condition. Im also quite fond of the ghost dial, which looks much better in real life, so it will stay for now

Thanks for the advice everyone! Happy that I pulled the trigger on this watch

Nah I can't do #6, short sleeve shirts are way too dorky......I wear long sleeve shirts with the sleeves rolled up.......way more stylish!
