    Hi All,
    I wonder if anyone would help me or advise? I recently bought through the site from a great dealer (Lunar Oyster) a nice straight writing Speedy. I would now like to put a 220 bezel insert on her, but at this time I do not have the rights to post on the WTB for one. Could anyone point me in the right direction to source one?

    Cheers,
    Michael

    Why?

    I'm 99% sure the 220 bezels only appeared on pre-moon '69's. If you bought a nice condition straight writing 69, all you'd be doing is ruining its originality.

    Shot down quickly, but nice to keep things authentic. Thanks for the tip, keep them coming!
