Not just for Speedy Tuesday as I find this one on my wrist more and more.

Hi all
So here it is my personal favourite Speedy the DSOT Apollo 8 with IMHO the best mix of old and new firstly by using a highly modified 1861 movement that becomes the 1869 and maintains its slim profile in doing so. Then you get the most up to date and modern use of ceramic for the case, pushers and bezel construction finished off with just a sprinkling of uniqueness by the laser ablated finishing of both the dial and rear side of the watch. All of which IMHO sets it aside from all the other Speedy's out there and here are a couple of shots of it in all its glory.
