Nice choice,such a versatile watch & fun to change straps w/ looks good on Nato/Zulus as well as leather,bracelet or of my favorites in my collection. CONGRATS !!

I have a ton of 20mm straps to swap. Since you mentioned, if I got time I go to do a port of this Speedy with many options. I have one, in crude leather from Peter Gunny that may be the winner. Stay tuned. Cheers, Nilo

Peter Gunny is top notch.

The Speedy with a Gunny: Cheers, Nilo
