Nico, the 2915 is the ultimate to go for, but very pricey
you could go for a 105.003 with straight lugs like the thin bezel sm300 and get a 64 model. i have to disagree with MSN i'm afraid as the 105.012 is the first assymetric cased model with twisted lugs like the big bezel sm300 model. all of these early models had black painted steel bezels.

Nicolas, Nice to see you joining the ranks of Speedy fans at last. Or maybe I should say owners - after all you've been a fan for a while I think but just not taken the plunge! My dream would be the CK 2915 pictured on page 100 of Omega Sportswatches by J...
still loving my 105.003

Hi Nic, This speedy is still one of my favourites, despite its age (this watch is as 'young' as me!!), I think it still looks cool on me, since I still look cool myself whahahahaha! After reading your post, I had to take some pix of it again on Xmas day! ...
Mech, i'm glad to see...

Mech, i'm glad to see you have the custom display back on it. the 321 deserves to be seen far more than the 861 does. my seamaster 321 is adjusted to 2 positions, something i've never seen on a speedy, but no display back for it sadly. i got your PM, but ...
