It's one of those watches which looks a lot better on the wrist than it does in the box. Mark of good design, in my opinion; the same goes for all clothes and jewellery.

Congrats!

Get that bad-boy on a bracelet and you'll have an all-time classic there, Sonyman. I've never owned a Speedy and I really want to, but I'm waiting on a full-in-house (i.e. non calibre 3313) based, 44mm Speedy to come out (if it ever will).

To be honest I have no idea of what it's worth and I haven't really thought about it. I was thinking more about the correct sizing I need for a leather strap. (don't really know much about watch straps!!)
