... that's a kind of a vintage version of the 5070 from VC you've jst made us almost all look "kind of".... ridiculous? P.s: Are you having such a hard day today? Good luck anyway Karim

I fell in love with the dial. When did you hunt it? Is it new? Sincerely Ahmet

Great choice for a very hard day.

 
By: Krieng : November 21st, 2008-08:43
Look more or less like the 5070. May I ask, what material that VC use to make the dial? Thanks and hang tough for the hard day. Cheers

You know what, Krieng?

It was the world's first automatic winding tourbillon

 
By: SJX : November 21st, 2008-05:12
It a hammer automatic, wound by a tantalum rotor that swung like a pendulum. I believe it was also the smallest tourbillon in the world at the time, along with being the slimmest. Apparently the watch was not particularly reliable when it was first introd...

What's interesting about this ad . . .

 
By: Dr No : November 21st, 2008-10:20
. . . which I've seen before but never noticed until now is that the Speedmaster is on the wrist of the passenger, which isn't quite what you'd expect in an advertisement . . . my guess is that the passenger is portraying the navigator in a rally. And yes... 

Still travelling and enjoying my comanion
