Show us your blue Speedy!!

I really like the look of the 3212.80.00. I'd love to see what other blue Speedys are out there.

At one point, I wanted it, but it is too small for me. Can't get over it.

This is the one I want.

Gemini IV, 40th Anniversary Edition of Ed White's EVA, firs man to "walk in space".
He was wearing a Speedmaster, of course.

Click HERE for a large Omega press photo.




June 4 1965





Unfortunately Ed White perished during the Apollo 1 fire, but his watch survived...

Here's my blue Speedy day-date. The blue is actually darker than in your pic. The inner 2/3rd's of the bezel is circularly brushed and the inner 3 dials have circular ridges as well. The detail is unbelievable. This is part of the Michael Schumacher collection but it's not limited edition.

Nice watches posted up there (the last 2 pictures). Great how you kept the older speedmaster.

Are those yours, Eric? Are they authentic? You have made some very unsettling posts here on TRF, so I'm watching...

Speedmaster

These watches are great. The 3513.50 is a good deal with classic looks. I wore one for two years before adding a 2225.50 Seamaster to the line up.

That's a nice Speedmaster, not a limited edition piece, uses the Valjoux 7750 movement (just based on what I know...which is very little) The pre-2006 (?) models were at 39mm case diameter, but I think they adjusted it to 40mm.
