criggs19 Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 I just sold my Gen Speedmaster 50th Anniversary Edition and sure do miss it but I had an offer that I just couldn't turn down. So I was looking around at the reps of the watch at a couple of dealer's sites. I was wondering, is there a Lemania hand winding version out there with the correct caseback? I have found on at Timeshops that looks pretty good but it is auto and I have found ones that are hand winding but have that damn clear caseback (why would they do that?) I like the one at Timeshops and at $108 bucks it's hard to pass up but I thought I'd ask around first. Thanks.
criggs19 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Posted January 31, 2010 There is one version that is "asian automatic" but the other is Quartz, which I'm not necessarily against. But the point of my post is that I don't want an auto but a handwinding movement with the correct case back.
nikki6 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 You and a good few of us on here bud!! I know several of us off the top of my head that would sell their Granny to get one!! Best thing to do is buy a nice Lamania hand wound model and pay $108 for the caseback you want. Prolly cheaper than buying a caseback alone! Sixx
criggs19 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks bud. I'll do that in a heartbeat but are we sure the caseback will fit?
