My first Speedy, purchased right here on the Forum with the help, support and guidance of some awesome people. Glad to be a member of the Club finally. 145.022-71. Happy Saturday all!
Congratulations, sir! 👍

Looks super! 👍

Also, is that a rotary dial telephone I see in the background?

I’ve been trying to figure that one out. Model 1 is key wind, key set, in a hunter case. Model 2 is transitional, stem/key wind in hunter case. Model 3 is the fifth pinion model in an open faced case. The subject watch isn’t any of those. Is this a model 2 (transitional) in a model 3 case? Can’t read the S#.

finally got it... Canada Post seemed to think it needed aging before delivery.
serial 805408... the online database thingy says: model 1, grade 5, made about 1888, 15j, coarse train, adjusted to RR spec.

at 4 beats/sec it sounds like a diesel truck at slow idle.
newer pictures later

DWW day 10. A bad conscience this one. Had it for long but not done it justice (as in a service, a new crystal and a more appropriate lume colour).

How fitting! A distant cousin for me...

Back to the grey side today, though the Sedna warms an otherwise gray and drizzly February day.
