All exceptional photos and beautiful watches. My fav is still the '57 reissue. So sad it's just out of reach for me.

Beautiful photos John. :thatshot:

I certainly wouldn't kick any of those out of bed, but I'd probably be playing favourites with the '57 and the Panda. :love:

Either that domino dial is really starting to grow on me, or John just takes really nice pictures.
Because that watch looks hot :thatshot:

Superb John
I too had a Mitsukoshi panda dial.. pic below, but I was a dumbass & sold it :banghead:

Question for you.. if you had to have just one.. would it be the original Speedy Pro Moon?
