Like you I have two very similar Speedmasters, both 71T's, one serial is from around mid 71 while the other is early 74, the early one has lovely lume but chipped paint on the hands and wrong bezel while the later one is all correct, close to my birth date and lume is a green tone.
I told myself I would sell the early one once back from indie service but it just looks so bloody good on a black Nato with that lume, also if they are a good investment then why sell, perhaps we should just enjoy them and cash in when needed.
You have a lovely pair of watches there, how good a deal was the pawnshop watch?
