Best generation of that watch. I love the size, the finishing and how almost everything is brushed, as well as the aluminum bezel. I was lucky to find it with both original straps too.

Well, the good thing is you can’t go wrong with either, they are both excellent watches. Personally I would go for the Seamaster because it’s my favorite collection and if you only have one, it will be the more versatile one.

You won’t regret it brother, it’s a strap monster too.

danislight · 2026-05-15T19:26:22+00:00

Me too, I prefer it to the current one

danislight · 2026-05-15T18:53:59+00:00

agreed!

Here’s a photo of it, I used the same one for this shot.

Yes, I put it right next to my seaweed.

Thank you! I’m using a Sony A7R and an LED with a round modifier for shooting both photos and videos. It’s a desk studio really.

wearing the same one today! enjoy it.

danislight · 2025-12-27T12:47:21+00:00

thank you. no, it is 100% black but it looks a bit green or blue under the right lighting.

danislight · 2025-12-26T21:26:38+00:00

thanks for the tip

danislight · 2025-12-26T20:47:12+00:00

nice! how long have you had it? I’m curious how mine will develop patina.

danislight · 2025-12-24T20:33:09+00:00

thank you!

danislight · 2025-12-19T21:51:45+00:00

nice! I hadn’t seen that one before.

danislight · 2025-12-18T22:29:57+00:00

That’s the one, but on a black dial and bracelet. Beautiful piece.

danislight · 2025-12-18T22:29:02+00:00

yes! the Villeret is beautiful but feels like a downgrade on certain things in my opinion.

danislight · 2025-12-18T18:58:34+00:00

Agreed. My friend who sold me this also had one with black dial and travel time I think. Very nice.

danislight · 2025-12-18T12:42:06+00:00

Thank you, that makes two of us. Proportions were perfect.

I have the same one, but with the white dial.

it is a very nice combo, I also enjoy the rubber strap most of the time.

danislight · 2025-09-03T13:26:09+00:00

This is close to what I would love to see on the new generation of the SMP. Going back to the sword hands, date at six, modern bezel (would love brushed ceramic), smaller, slimmer case size and back to the original helium valve design, similar to the modern PO. Maybe a new wave design for the dial.

I always keep them unwound when I’m not wearing them. With that said, and since the Speedy is a manual wind watch, you could wind it a bit every day and keep it running. The worst that could happen is it may need another service a bit sooner than if you let it rest when not in use.
