    New Arrival - Speedmaster 105.012-66 a few more pics

    Arrived at the weekend and I'm really, Really happy with this!

    Pictures courtesy of seller (thanks Christian) the ones on the Di-Modell Rallye are mine (hence the crap quality). It keeps excellent time, case edges are still crisp and sharp and the tritium even has a bit of glow to it.
























    Cheers

    Ian :D :D

    Lovely looking example, all the more attractive because it's a 321 (IMO) :)

    For a 1966 pre-moon cal.321 let just say "not cheap" but just look at it , so worth it! 8) :love4:

    Lovely. My 145.012 says hi. Any chance of some full-length shots of yours on the diModell Rally? I have mine on a black ZRC rally but think something slightly chunkier might be better...

    Thanks all for the kind responses. I will post pictures of it on the Di-Modell Rallye once I've had a chance to work out why the macro function on my camera has gone haywire.

    He obviously did'nt think so, seeing as he left his in the command module!

    [If it happened at all :wink: ]

    Seriously, THE definitive Speedmaster 8) NEVER sell it.

    beautiful watch - well done on an excellent choice!

    makes me unhappy with mine - replacement handset (wrong chrono hand) and bezel. must find original example...

    Looks great on that strap, perhaps even nicer than on a bracelet!

    Re: New Arrival - Speedmaster 105.012-66 a few more pics

    +1 for the strap 8) I have mine on perforated leather as well. May I be so bold as to suggest a period strap with a narrower 16mm buckle would suit better? I've had this with my old Navitimer, whatever 22mm strap I try, the 18/20mm buckles on them just don't look right on vintage. Yours, Mr Green with envy :wink:
