Still going strong after 11 yrs, maybe?

Although paper said 2012, these Alaska Project Speedmasters should be produced back in 2008.

Still keeping good and accurate time although winding crown is somewhat tight so I’m not going to send in for service yet.

Watch has been a pleasure to wear for last 2 weeks, also accompanied me to a recent event.

































A Speedmaster collectors’ grail.







Controversial quote...not stirring this up again. I think both versions are correct.

I’ve been there a couple times and I’ll be at Boeing Field this week. Small world! Mike

We humans are even smaller, lol...

Yet we spent 1/3 of our lives sleeping, 1/3 working, and remaining 1/3 with some arguing, unhappy times etc What’s left to enjoy 😊? Enjoy your trip at Boeing, Mike.

I like your math, my friend !

Too much great food, cuisines, watches and collectors. Same to you, PM me when you visit near Oregon/Washington region.

The fifty-year old NOS Flightmaster my watchmaker is servicing for Abel . . .

. . . ran essentially perfectly on his timing machine. The only reason it's being serviced is to refresh the lubricants. So no surprise your youngster is running fine out of the box.

Wow....that’s good to know, so probably I’ll save this task for the next generation 😬

I’ll just enjoy wearing them and pass on the servicing cost...and the watches, of course. It’s a good feeling this one has so much more life to it. Thanks Art.

Great museum 👍...
