So, I just now realized Speedy Tuesday 🙄.
I wore my 'eldest' Speedy last night in between drooling over some 100-odd vintage Heuer's:

What is a forum watch? Made of threads?

Still my latest, early 1950s 2577-5 with the caliber 351 bumper movement. Rescued from scrap- replaced case and dial, new (generic) crown, armoured crystal, replacement (Omega) hour hand, hand made case clamp, reconditioned. Excellent performer. The replacement dial has not been refinished, and has become a sort of antique white tone, fairly even, and vastly better than the original (damaged) dial. I may investigate restoring the badly damaged original gold shell case (2577-11). If I do, I might consider converting it back to the original case. The second one is my recently acquired '50s vintage bumper, also rescued from scrap! I have included a picture of it, though it is not presently on my wrist.

it was only made in limited quantities for forum members & all were spoken for I believe only 50 or 60 were made some were ordered with sapphire crystals and solid case back and some of us wanted acrylic and exhibition back like mine.
