Picked this up off of TZ just this weekend....it is soooo gorgeous! Only complaint is the crown is hard to work but i am still loving this watch! Here are some pics....enjoy!

Looks good....I love mine..

My biggest gripe on the Speedy is the excessively recessed crown. To wind it every morning you are generally only able to get a grip on the outer sharp edge.

But that is a small gripe........

Very nice. Congratulations.

I would love a moonwatch, especially the ani patch!

Great work, wear it in good health!

Congrats on a great watch!

On a different note... I love your wallpaper!

Feels kinda good to see my work being used as a wallpaper by somebody other than me.

Thanks for all the kind words! I am loving this watch soooooo much. However, last night, i started checking its accuracy, +3 sec after 9 hours of sitting face up on my night table, not as good as i have hoped. I will check again when i get home tonight to see how it did while i was wearing it for the day. How are other's Speedy pro in terms of accuracy?

Are you kidding? That was the best wall paper i could find for the moon watch! Good job! Hope you didn't mind me using it....=P

I do like that model.

My son's speedy sandwich runs fast about 9 seconds/day.

really i went the other day and toyed with a few speedies in my local AD and i found that the crown on this limited edition was more kinda resistant than on the other speedy, the regular one but then i think this is cuz it was brand new and the other one had been toyed with for a while...i think it will break in in a while..lovely watch :)
