I saw this one pop up on TZ listed as 3573, but the pictures show it as a 3570.....I know there are many variants of this model so am I missing something. I thought the 3573 was the sappire sandwich?!?

thanks for putting up with my noob speedmaster questions I'm learning as I go :shrug:

Saw that one, and yup, you're right. The 3573 is a sapphire sandwich. :thumbsup:

At that price, the 3573 would have been a steal. For the 3570, it's "eh" at best.

Yep thats not sapphire sandwich. Hopefully Peter figured it out although like the Wu said thats a good price on the 73 but kinda high on the 70. :think:

There are some of the best "what a watch should cost" minds here. Never fear running a price by-The Wu is particularily skilled-especially on quality pieces like the speedy. Image

Yeah, the sticker in the second pic says 3570 as well. Sloppy or just a bit dim?
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.
