Incoming (Over the Moon!!!)
I’ve had my eye on a Speedy 005 hesalite for quite some time now and finally decided to pull the trigger. I’ve noticed that the prices have been steadily creeping up over the past few months (maybe from discontinuation rumors) so when I found a BNIB model with stickers intact at what I thought to be a fair price I went for it and WOW I couldn’t be happier! This reference is the real deal and a stunner on the wrist. I have to admit that I was on the fence between the hesalite and sapphire crystal but I have to say that @brandrea if you’re reading this thread GO FOR IT and make sure you go with the 005 hesalite!!! It has great wrist presence for a 42mm dial and the bracelet fits absolutely perfectly unsized on my 7.75” wrist. I can’t thank this forum enough and all of the hardcore Omega lovers that provided a wealth of insight which helped me make this decision. Anyhow, enough talk and now for the obligatory wrist shot!!!

Did the same, if I had it to do over again I’d buy the Speedmaster before considering the Rolex.
