Hi all,
I was recently given my grandfather’s vintage Speedking. It’s absolutely gorgeous - love the patina is the dial! Now time to get it serviced and running again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That’s a beauty. Looks like something a distinguished man would wear.

It's probably from the early '40s by the dial design.

Beautiful piece. There's a shop just across from the Savoy and down a bit that I used to use with excellent results, but for the life of me I can't think of their name. :/
Will post if I can find any of my old invoices from them. |
