I don't know why people go on and on about Hesilite speedy being the "true" original yet buys a watch with a complete different movement. I'd rather a recent sapphire sandwich with a 321 movement anyday and that would be more true than a 1861 movement which is basically a revision of another revision of the original. Nowhere close to the watch mechanism that actually went to the moon.
Waves my 1969 Speedy - on 1450 bracelet !
looked at the speedy, wasn't a fan so i went next door and purchased a Tag Heuer Carrera instead :)
Haha hey man - congrats. It's all a matter of preference and getting what you like. Wear it in good health!

Appreciate the comment - unless I am mistaken, the 321 is an extremely difficult piece to attain right now for most
