Bro! Is that yours?!

Which speedy to buy for this mod? 3570? Who can mod for me? Can provide more information? I am so excited now!!

Option 1
Buy the original Speedmaster Mitsukoshi edition, which is quite rare.

Option 2
Get a 42mm speedy with either 1861 or 1863 mvt

Source dial and handset from Ofrei
*OME-064WK3052031 - Dial
*HAN-4246 - Hour & Min Hand
*HAN-4247 - Sweeping Chrono Hand

If you want exact look to Mitsukoshi edition then you need to purchase additional silver sub-dial hands. For better contrast, I chose to use back the original white sub-dial hands.

Bring watch and parts to Lu-Ann Vintage at Far East Plaza for the swap.

Hi guys. Planning to buy something from Higuchi. Just wanna check if you guys know if it's a reputable site? The webby seems a bit sparse, so not sure of the reputability.

reputable alongside chino watch and seiya.

edit: in regards to that article. at least the guy is being honest with his watches. hes not passing it off as real as some of the posters here.

Funny, I am currently researching on Eterna as the Madison 8 Days caught my eye. From what I have read so far, Eterna makes innovative and good quality watches, just that their distribution network is lacking.
