Saw this at a secondhand dealer yesterday
When I was on my Way to buy the new Tudor Bronze
Always had mixed emotions about this MK40.
The many colors ... a bit too much. Black, white, blue, grey, red, yellow

Automatic while I do prefer manual winding
On the other hand all the colors do make it pretty cool, the 39mm well I won't wear it every day, the automatic ... all My Rolexes and Tudors are automatic
And the extra complications like day, date, month, day and night indicator plus of course the chronograph
Well looking at the average market price (which went up a little because of that Hodinkee LE) ... and seeing it 'available' in front of me I just had to buy it 
55 serial numer so made in 1995
FYI
and some close ups
and off topic but that was the Tudor I went for .... unfortunately I came across this Omega too and went home with 2 watches

The number engraved on the back isn't a movement number, Bruno . . .
. . . so the chart info doesn't really apply. I remember seeing these on dealer's shelves over twenty years ago, so a '95 production date isn't impossible, but it would be coincidental. The numbers engraved on the back represent the case, or serial, numbe...
