Dang it! 😡

You have my birth year Speedy...1964...I need one of those. Too bad I can’t afford one...will you give me yours?

Please? 😁

@Mad Dog : there are not many more OF members I’d be likely to yield to - you’ve made a clear impression on all of us. Hell, a birth year Speedmaster might be just what it takes to have you freed from your obvious hostage situation. (See my previous comments.) I also like your affection for gorgeous American pocket watches.

But my -64 was made in September 1965, just as I was starting fifth grade (according to ilovemyspeedmaster), so it wouldn’t suit. Whew! cause I’m getting rather attached to the watch. It’s within 1000 serial numbers of two NASA watches too:



Might as well get a shot in too, cause I’m wearing it again today.

Ref 1675 ca 1970.

Wow, Dan, that might very well be the most stunning 1675 I’ve ever seen!

Many thanks @rkmann11! I really enjoy wearing this one, but a gilt-dial 1675 is on my wish-list. There's nothing quite like those gilt dials IMO.

Out of my league. So back to basics.

I definitely understand the gilt dial attraction, but that bezel is PERFECTION! The fade is incredible! Oh, and in case it wasn’t clear: DIBS! (Just wait a while so I can fill the coffers a wee bit more please!)
