    Not the most comprehensive as they are mostly the same watch with a little bit of different coloured paint on the dials :P . I seem to remember seeing one of these sets in a AD's window for £40k a while back.

    A truly diverse collection of Speedies would have some pre-Moon stuff and some other movements

    WHY would you have so many watches so similar? (sorry does that make me sound like one of those people who say "why do you need more than one watch? :? )

    Interesting collection but I'd have no interest in multiple watches of the same type.

    Quite right.

    Loads of Speedy variants and generations missing.

    The 'Missions' series is nice but no way does it truly represent the genre :)

    You could do a hell of a lot better with £125k and a brief to buy 20 watches, much as I love my speedy.

    And that is a truly horrendous presentation case.

    They aren't all the same though, they all seem to be at different times :wink:

    Nice watches, but at 125.000£, I'd buy something else!

    Hasn't that set been on Ebay.com for years?

    I can remember looking at it back in 2007.
