Incoming Broad Arrow 1957 Speedy

Just picked this up NOS. Didn’t even take the protection off the bracelet and ditched it for a blushark nato, this’ll be my beater and leisure piece.

I bought one too!

I recently also picked up the same watch and really like it. Where did you get that nato? It looks a bit more substantial than most - I may want one!

Congrats

I like how the contrast between the NATO and the case really accentuates the sharpness of the lugs.

Its a blushark premium nato $36. They have three variants, this is the best. The photo doesn’t do justice to the silky finish and overall quality. Recommend.

Yes, the grey/black bond nato goes well with this variant. Dial accents and lugs seem to both set this off on a nato, unlike the standard speedy all black dial.
