jtiis Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 So, I recently put up my Panda Speedy for sale - but then a buyer emerged that only wanted the watch with the original (black) dial. So, I kep the Panda dial/hand - and in a strange turn of circumstance came upon a different LE Speedy at a reasonable price. So, I had the movement serviced, case cleaned up, added a display back that I got for a song. Strapped her to a new croc strap from a nice seller over at TZ and ... bam... good as new. Happily re-paired with her "sister" in blue. Thanks for endulging the thrill of having them back together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtiis Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thanks. Just noticed their movements are almost opposites. The LE movement is Silver with gold highlights... the 861 copper/gold with silver highlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B3nj4min3 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Gorgeous, truly gorgeous. I especially love that fact that the panda dial has the date of the Apollo 11 landing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraggle42 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Gorgeous, truly gorgeous. I especially love that fact that the panda dial has the date of the Apollo 11 landing And no matter how much he turns the crown, the date just won't change!

panerai153 Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 those are beautiful!! I had and old Speedy Pro several years ago, hardly ever wore it, I believe that if It had the Panda dial, it would still be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pam007 Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Love the look. I myself just picked up a gen 145.022 last week and will be my daily beater. Sent from my Delorean 10 years in the future using Tapatalk now Free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtiis Posted October 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Good for you pam007. My Panda is a 145022 also. As a daily wear they are SO comfortable, nice low-ish profiled and are rugged as nails. Grab a display back if you can, that beautiful movement deserves to be seen (especially in boring meetings!). I can hook you up with the German makes of a nice sapphire model if you're interested. Cheers - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
