This 2648 is still getting most of my wrist time since I stuck it on the bracelet 😀



Since this picture I have managed a much better fit with the endlinks too 😉

Looks great, especially on that bracelet! Love these steel constellations.

Cristos71 - that's a great combination. That bracelet adds a really nice touch IMHO.

Wearing it on a different, ostrich leg strap recently, but you get the idea.

[sarcasm] Love those repetitive subjects on other forums! [/sarcasm] That one isn't as bad as "What watch = what car?" or "I have $xxxx to spend - what should I buy?".

"I just found this dusty, rusty watch when cleaning out my great grandfather's house in which he died 40 years ago. Do you think it needs a service?"
"Help me choose: Immense, plumbing-fixture-like dive watch versus other immense, plumbing-fixture-like dive watch."

actual title currently on another forum: "Is the Speedy Pro a functional watch?" (consensus appears to be that it is 🙄) http://forums.watchuseek.com/f2/speedy-pro-functional-watch-960787.html

and finally a Zenith-specific one: "Help! My new Primero-powered chronograph is broken as the second hand does not stop when I pull out the crown to set it"

The other Speedmaster related nugget of wisdom from WUS is whenever any member asks for advice on what watch they should buy somebody invariably endorses a Speedy even though it's not suited to the task at all, i.e. a dress watch.

Cracked lacquer, overpolished, wrong end links but very much loved anyway. 🙄
