Poor man’s PN Daytona + 2 birds, 1 stone

1 - While I do like the wide open layout, and much prefer the black bezel, I know I’m never gonna actually part with the breathtaking pile of cash it takes for a Paul Newman these days.
2 - I’ve always sorta wanted to add a Speedy to my little collection, but they wear just a bit big for me.

So, when this 39mm Speedy Reduced popped up, it did seem to cover two bases. (Called a Marui edition, sold through a Japanese department store of that name around 2003.)

Sweet, I haven't seen that color before or heard of the Marui edition. I really liked my Speedy Reduced. Much too small for me though, wore more like a 36mm than a 39mm, but it looks good on your wrist.

Very nice, I like how my Speedy Reduced wears on my wrist.
