Hey all,

I turned 21 a couple of weeks ago, and my family very kindly gifted me a watch that any self-respecting WIS should have in their collection. I don't need to tell you guys anything about the watch, but as is custom, pics or it didn't happen!

This shows off how the domed hesalite plays with the light. One of my favourite features of the watch!

If it makes you feel better... I'm not either =(

Still waiting for the right Cal 321 to come along.

145.022-67 original dial/hands with some patina but nice condition 1479 bracelet Cal 321 Speedmaster Pro, then install an OEM sapphire caseback.

I'm willing to go for a knocked around one and repair it if needed, it will never look as nice as Chris's 3570.50... might need to get one of them too, but the '67 is my starting point 馃榾

Sounds great, a pre moon watch with with sapphire display window.
I'd love a old speedie but i'd prefer the 1998 bracelet fitted, just got into the habit of just pressing the side buttons to release.

Yeah.. Loosen up a bit. Anyway, congrats on a great white.

Btw, I always assumed you were older. I can barely remember when I turned 21. Lol
