Thanks Tony, that was an interesting read. 👍

Indeed it was Tony!

I had a 5513 back in the day. Paid £2,600 for it from a friend and sold it a couple of years later for the same amount on here. Those were the days! Gratuitous photo below:

Great! Thanks Noodles...

Did try to reply to your PM but your box is full... Got the info though and will try and get this out today.

Loved my MQ, probably ten years ago that I had it. 😂

Lovely Flighmaster - and I agree it doesn't need polishing!

I will leave this link here about a similar experience I had, it remains my biggest watch related SNAFU and even after all this time it...

The story of Ed White and his Speedy always interested me, I wrote a couple of posts about it a few years ago:

This is my 924 Turbo, 1980 S1 car.

I've lowered it a tad and stuck Fuchs on it. I love it, proper 80's turbo, lag up to around 4k then kicks you in the ass as the turbo kicks in.

Great post, very interesting. Thanks Brendon.

Just been through the whole Friday thread and this is my stand out photo... So reminiscent of the old cold war films and books I like and a watch to suit!

Why do you want to read your own posts?

If you want to see if anyone has posted since you - or replied you in a thread, use 'quick links' at the top of the page and then 'subscribed threads'. You...

Having, like you Tony, owned and sold an Ed White, no other Speedy will ever come close for me. So its another Ed or nothing as far as Speedmasters!

Interesting choice Steve, but I totally get where you are coming from in making it. I've been, (pretty much) a one watch man for a while now and whilst I occasionally miss certain watches that have...
