I went to a Watch fair a few monthes ago.
I was just there to browse and see if I can look at some nice watches and also to meet some good friends of mine.
One of them is the admin of a french watch forum (Montres pour tous).
Anyway, as soon as I arrived there, she told me that a friend of her had a Speedy for sale.
Ok then, let's have a look !
Well, it was a 145-022 68ST that sat in a drawer for the last 30 years.
I was BORN in 1968 !
As soon as I asked the seller for the price, I knew it would be mine (3K€).
No need to say that I'm more than happy to wear it (even if I should have had it overhauled)...
Now, I know that my daughter will have something from me (and that she'll remember my birthyear)
