Love the matte dial on this one.

Yeah I know, Speedy Tuesday. But today I needed some sparkle 😀

Warning: Non-vintage ahead!

Two-tone Broad Arrow for my Speedy Tuesday. I like the brown dial, matching brown bezel and RG combo, but you wouldn’t believe how much I struggle photographing it. Getting the dial to light up with interesting reflections almost always results in detracting crystal reflections (non dual AR). This pic splits the effect. Full disclosure: Photo taken October 13th alright…Oct 13, 2011.



As a bonus two-tone two for Tuesday , please allow me to re-use this photo as well, which turned out a little better imo, as far as the BA goes.



Of course here, you get it all! Speedy and sparkle!

Inspired by the UG blue Compax thread I re-configured my brunette "Nina", not very clean but still lovely.

This gray-brown strap with black sides perfectly matches the tropical dial and black bezel of this Universal Genève Compax, ref. 885103/03.

Nicely patinated 2179 with unusual hands. I'm pretty sure that this dial looks better now than it did when new. Problem is I'm not a camera phone type and my pics stink unless I'm using a decent 35mm DSLR and lightbox. So this is as good as I can do at the office.

Mile into ride I realize I'm riding in style... Or that I forgot to take off the Speedy.

I've done that before!

As long as you protect Speedy as/if you fall, you're OK! Might separate your shoulder by sparing your watch, but hey, must have priorities!

Another 1-year anniversary watch from the triple play weekend right after I joined Ω-F, this one the 'Queen' IMO. I've bought higher value, and better condition Connie's since, but this one's still my favorite:

Continuing with the heavy metal theme. Sorry @Mad Dog not the heavy metal you would automatically think of😉

Picked this up recently, so thought I'd go battery powered for a change
