Traded back to the AD & purchased the other watch I wanted - Monaco McQueen Calibre11 (this was more heart then head). Wore once or twice a week, but found chunky and uncomfortable throughout the day (& always enjoyed putting the BB58 back on). Sold after 8 months.

Part of me regrets moving the Speedy on so soon & if I could pick a new one up at a good price I’ll give it a go again.

The Monaco much like Panerai I feel looks great online, in shop windows, in pictures & on other people, but I doubt I could own either again.

I don’t share this on the fly craze, imho you can get along well without it. But in case it’s necessity, just get Omega leather and Bob’s your uncle.
