Not a watch, but my Speedy wall clock came in the mail today. Really nice quality, I'm very surprised.

I almost grabbed this one instead of my sea dweller. Do the subdials do anything?? What I like about my sea dweller is that the date actually changes. Pretty cool for a wall clock

They don't do anything although I could add the ability because the holes are drilled on the back. Also not tach hand, but it does have lume!

Is the word “Speedmaster” slanted, or is that just optics from the photo?

This arrived today.
Quite a hefty li'l beast.
Need to see if I can decipher the instruction manual to decide if this is going to stay in the collection or not.
