I have to confess that I almost don't know anything about the Speedmaster except some basic data. But of course, I consider it as one of the very few true iconic watches in the watchmaking history. Two non professional of the watch industry Speedmaster lo...

Wow, I didn't know Anthony wrote a book!

Like you, not a big fan of the Speedie, except when it comes to some very early refs, 2915, 2998, and 105 003. Well, all straight lugs cases. So maybe I should buy the book to discover the one I will get? Even if I already have a small idea.... Best, Nico...

. . . as I respect the Speedmaster genre, out of all them, it's the Mk II that makes my heart skip a beat. Can't get those fluid lines . . . . . . out of my mind . . . ...

I imagine you'd agree that that is probably the least of his practices that you would be embarrassed to adopt.

This was my first thought too when I saw the picture.

Didn't he actually coin the malapropism 'man on the moon watch'?

Looks like very interesting read!
