I honestly don’t know if it gets better than this…

I never thought I’d find “the exit watch”, but I genuinely haven’t ever been this in love with a watch in my whole life. I would change nothing about...

Just reviewing some notes for tomorrow’s seminar.

Even against a page of text, the Speedy is succeeding.

One hundred percent.

You have my sympathy. I somewhat regret selling my Tudor North Flag. I sold it just before they discontinued it, and it has since gone up by about £1200. 😬 I always wanted the Speedy, but had to settle for what I could afford. However, there's no price snobbery here. My never-sell watch is my Seiko SKX 009. It's been to many different countries with me and has the scars to show it. The bezel is turning a nice pink with sun exposure (which is lovely). And to top it all off, it was on my wrist as the top of Ben Nevis (tallest mountain in UK in case you're not from the UK) when I proposed to my now fiancee. I would never sell that watch. Not if you offered me 50 rolexes. So there's no snobbery here. 😊

A more charitable way of saying this would be "one of the many Speedys which went to space failed and was replaced with a Bulova once"😉. But yes, I take your point, the Bulova is a great watch too. But while I admire the super accurate movement tech which Bulova use (having a vibration of 250,000 times a second...which is awesome) the original Moonwatch is where it's at for me. There are things I would change about the Lunar Pilot. I wouldn't change a thing about the Speedy. Thanks for the comment though. Lucky I'm such a nice guy. You might have offended a less self-assured one 😢😉

Yeah, I had a bunch of straps for my prior watch (Seamaster 300 which also has a 20mm strap size). Thanks bud.

Things got Dark, and Speedy got bright.

There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Introducing the most unoriginal watch to share in a watch community. However, like many of you, this particular watch holds a story (or many) for me....

Still going strong

Little bit of trivia. Got this watch when I was 13 (19 years ago). When I was 16 I was in a hot tub and didn’t realise there was a hole in the crystal...

My fiancée has her first watch tan line.

Proud of my fiancée for her first watch tan line. She’s in love with a Timex and I’m not stopping her.
