Nice pairing. Any wrist shots? Where did you source the hornback from?
Might have a wrist shot tomorrow. I've been getting Hadley Roma straps fron Lone Star Watch Straps for a while now.
Speedy fans, what are your thoughts on the new '57 Speedmaster, reviewed here?
Nice watch, but why are they confusing their history? THIS is a 57 Speedmaster:
Then they had the homage reissue that they unfortunately named the "replica". I had one of these. I loved the dial, but the broad arrow hands blocked reading of the subdials and the movement on mine was a lemon:
Seems to me these "new 1957s" could stand on their own without reference to earlier models which are nothing like them.
Fascinating. Rolex employees were just told this morning in Geneva that Dufour, ex-CEO of Zenith, is now the guy at the top. Wonder what this means for Rolex's future offerings.
Was Dufour responsible for Zenith returning to its design roots, or for those monstrosities of the early 2000s?
