Independents

A couple of years ago I bought this watch on the used market and noticed that it had a 0007 serial number on the back. When I research it I found an article in Monochrome (5/10/2012) about the Speake-Marin Resilience and lo and behold the pictures used ha...  

Said John Cleese at Monty Python flying circus, episode elephant 🎪 Blansky, you have an out of the box watch here. Pure and stylish. More members here with rare watches that have a rare origin? Thank you for sharing your watch.

I also have a few watches that are 7 or 007 (it just ended up that way )so if you ever want to pass this watch please let me know 😉

I've always wished my wrists were large enough for Speake-Marin watches. The enamel dial with blued hands and finely finished rotor - just superb.

The piece IS!!! the Period before Peter(Speake-Marine) gave up ownership of namesake company ............ iconic in design , perspective, and over all message on timepieces , ie , the lugs dropping off , the rotor in the back, while maintaining detail ...... 

I remember Peter showing me plenty of photos in Baselworld that they had taken recently with Pierce Brosnan. He was very excited and enthusiastic. We had good fun… Gold memories (like Goldfinger )
