Speedmasters just scream "space" in every photo I see of them.

That is a poor man's nothing. The speedy is an example of a classic watch which has held up over time.

Couldn't agree with you more. They're classics in every sense.

Thank you.

Someone gave me the 861 movement (c. 1982) for a special commemorative project which unfortunately was not possible.

After refurbishing the movement, a display back was a must. I liked the look of the "1957 Replica" model and incorporated the dial, hands, and bezel into this LE 1/1.

Three years ago, I let it go in a "herd thinning" but recently, it returned to the fold and currently gets the most wrist time.
