Pity they didn't do an Ed White commemorative edition. I think that would've sealed the deal for a lot of Omega fanboys.

Joined the speedy club today. You get to play Spot The Differences between this and a modern speedy!

To the Omega purists (aka a562140, pwillie) - alas, I was unable to afford a 321 movement, so I got the next best - 861 movement but '68 transitional.

And very hard to find a Good condition DO90 now.

the pre-moons, straight lugs right up to the transitionals - now that's a whole different tier of speedmasters.

There's a bunch of DO90 bezels on the bay now, but since you're hearing it from me then you know the hordes have descended...

Ed white, wah piang. I run daily searches for a decent yet well-priced one, to no avail. I found a couple of good ones listed on Brazilian marketplaces, but the sellers are unwilling to ship internationally. The hunt continues...

No luck with DDSP Blue. In UK however, if I put in a 1K deposit they will gurantee it will be mine. But well.. Dunno when i will be back in UK. Maybe 4months later? that sucks. But there are The Hulks available in Europe around.
