Yes. But it’s one to leave on bracelet, in my honest opinion. Would get an 1861 and strap that should the desire be for a Speedy on strap.

Fair enough.

Do you have a photo of it on a strap?

Ahh, I'd forgotten that.

So when you say that you are currently wearing it on a strap, what sort of strap do you mean ?

So far I have tried:
- Omega alligator strap with deployant clasp
- Omega brown vintage strap

Now I do like the watch on the black strap.

I think that this was the first picture I saw of a 321 on leather and I've liked it ever since.

Depending on the price, I would be much happier to buy the watch on that strap rather than on the metal bracelet. I think the strap really suits the older / classical look of this watch and it makes it much less "sparkly" to my eye.

Very nice.

Well, I got the call today. Bank transfer being done and will be shipped my way! Can’t wait. In all honesty I thought the wait would be longer but I’ll take it. Looking forward to a compare to the Apollo 11

Congratulations on your new watch, can you just pay by card over the phone?

Bank transfer to swatch group mate. They then send by courier once received. All good. Cheers. Will post some photos tomorrow (apparently arriving Friday afternoon)!

A bit odd. As by all accounts that royal exchange boutique is doing click and collect. The regents street boutique is not and insisted on the method I said above.

Either way - all good.
