A few observations/ questions
So the new one has a naiad crown, but the original didn't? Is it just me or are the engravings on the new one's bezel a bit exaggerated compared to the original? I would trade my '83 Speedy for either of those, if the opportunity arose elsewhere, that's a...

Wow. The lume of the 60th is even close to the patina of the older one..
Thanks for the side by side. Really appreciate it. Echi
