Checking out Neil's Speedy at the Air and Space museum.



While wearing my non-speedy Chrono:



Also, the Wright Brothers' stopwatch from the first flights at Kittyhawk.



Sidenote: Neil's Speedy looks suspiciously clean and shiny. Was hard to tell through the display case, but I'm wondering if the real one's in storage.

That is a beautiful piece. Consider that 105 usd in 1945 would have been equivalent to 1500 plus in today's dollars. It was a special watch, and is.
Thanks for the kind words regarding my Hammy Niner Fife Zero, dude. 👍

From the aftmost pew, starboard side...the usual location...

1972 Omega Speedmaster Professional Mark II
Partially Serviced by Omega 10yrs ago. I was a fool to keep the original hands only. Keeps perfect time.
