After watching "The American," I've had this fascination with a speedy! Though not the exact model Jack (George Clooney) wore, I went for the FOIS. Its 39mm dial and alpha hands give it a subtle uniqueness. I also switched the case back, lowering the height by just 1 millimeter – it's amazing how much of a difference that makes!! And now, I get to admire the caliber 1861 in all its glory 🤩🤩🤩

Nice work! 👌🎯
Sweet.
These are definitely worthy of an exhibition case back - v nice.
May I ask where you sourced the case back from?

FOIS gives that little piece of shine to otherwise monochromatic Moonwatch 👍 Also, any tips on changing the case back?

Thank you - really helpful to know where to go.

Indeed! I do think FOIS conveys a bit "bling" among all Speedy models, but just as cool! Regarding the case back, it should be relatively strait forward should you utilize the right tool. I think you can purchase it as an add-on in spiralwinderwatchparts.com:

Thank you, Sir!
Very nice, Ming. I see a FOIS, I clap. 👏 Especially love the reflections that you caught in the photos too.

Thank you for clapping, Sir! I am learning how to take micro shots with my old phone. All you guys' #wruw were so beautiful. I want mine to look the part too!
