Speedmaster PRO, some shots

Post by 425ranger » Thu Apr 14, 2011 11:07 am

Spent a couple minutes with speedy... my, she is a looker too.

Image

The classic 42mm speedy is a very comfortable watch to wear for me (7.75 in).

Image

The bracelet is smooth and balances the weight perfectly.

Image

As I just had a classic sub I can say, the sub wears a little "watch head" heavy, flops a bit. I blame this on the bracelet. The speedy wears close and flat... very flat on the wrist.

Image

Timing has been very good ~5sec/day.

Image

I think it is a great watch..... :love:

I found that I wroe a Rolex a little bit for other people, but I wear the speedy for me, and me alone. :rock:




couple more for s and g's

and the CoAX, gone but not forgotten (too big btw)

Gorgeous Bill! That has been one of my early WIS favorites.

Beautiful classic piece Bill, and i know what a beast the SeaWolf is on the wrist! If the LV wasnt your thing i feel you got two amazing pieces that fit into two different area's of your collection! :cheers:

Love the one with Flag in the backgroound. I try to get that shot outside of where I work and can't seem to nail it down like you did.
Do you have the co-ax date speedy, too? cool to have those options.

Solid. It is one of the most comfortable watches to wear I've ever owned-perfectly balanced like you said. Its not a heavy watch-not Ti light either but its a good weight. Hugs the wrist like a 2 bit Ho also. Great piece.

Love it. I've been wearing my 3570.50 every other day as of late. It's a nice option to have a manual wind in the line up that you dont have to unscrew/screw the crown when you wind it up.
