Steel 321 - great article by hodinkee. “A week on the wrist.”

Great and informative , in depth article on the steel 321.

Thank you. Lots of good side-by-side photos with the Speedmaster Pro, and it's interesting to see such a clear comparison.

I understand and getting more and more eager to receive 321.

As mentioned elsewhere the debate between hesalite and Saphire continues but has been made a bit more complicated with the new 321 crystal which claims to have mitigated the cloudiness of the original saphire speedy.

Do you have a sense of when you might see your 321?

I've been reading up alot on it. Excited to see the incoming!

I'm very excited to see this one as well! Been a speedy fan for over 20 years, and have owned many of the variants over that time span. Currently have the modern Speedy Pro with the hesalite and updated bracelet.

I've placed on order for the 321, with a hefty deposit. Unfortunately, there's no timeline for delivery. Just that it "can be" ordered. So the wait begins.

When I ordered they were expecting first deliveries in June...that got pushed back to December. I am not at the top of the list but the AD has reached out several times with updates so I am confident I am a part of an actual shortlist.

Also have appreciated the speedy for its beautiful and legible dial layout. The one thing that kept me from pulling the trigger was the 42mm size. Between the size reduction and bringing back the Lemania I was sold out of the gate.

My guess would be sometime in 2021...I’m hoping sooner than later, only time will tell.

I’m really liking this watch. Here’s another look at the Ed White. I’m definitely interested in this watch a lot more than I was when it was announced.

321 is going to be a great piece - I’m really liking that piece as well.

I picked up a Speedy Pro with Sapphire.
I think I should have went Hesalite.
