Icon6 I'm ready for my first Speedy Pro; but have questions....

What is lacking in my meager collection is a Speedy Pro. I have long wanted a 42mm Speedy but the show stopper for me are the two things it is missing--the date and auto movt. I am well aware there's school of people out there who love the Speedy Pro in its original form.

I am ready to include a Speedy to my collection. One such model I am considering is the Speedy 9300 in 44mm + leather. I have only tried it on the wrist once while I was in Switzerland last month. A lot of people say it doesn't wear big at all and it sort of doesn't feel big on my 7.5" wrist, maybe because it is thinner than my Pam 88 and Breitling Ti Seawolf Avenger.

Here's what I would relly like to get if I can and if it exists:
(1) 42mm Speedy Pro, Auto, Date, Co-Axial; or
(2) 42mm Speedy Pro, Auto, Date

Your recommendations, with Reference numbers, will be truly appreciated.

Pls. also recommend which movement on a Speedy that is undesirable due to past and tracked mechanical problems (always requiring service).

Thank you in advance.

P.S. I currently own the SMP Great White GMT 2538.20 and SMP James Bond GMT 2535.80.
