Little scratches on bezel side near crown from setting time / screwing in crown?
Am I the only one this happens to?On your RO, especially if you have a screw in crown, unlike the 15202, the polished side of the bezel has small hairline scratches.They aren't really noticeable and they don't bug me, but I can't be the only one this happens to!I barely have nails too!

Birthyear '79 Speedy Has Landed
My first Speedmaster Pro arrived this morning. While I initially thought about an earlier model, I settled on a birth year 1979 145.022. I am pretty pleased as the case is incredibly sharp, could be factory polish, and all of the parts appear original with the dial and hands having a pleasing patina. It came on the incorrect 1170 bracelet with 633 end links, which is not a big deal as I do not see myself ever wearing it on a bracelet.Overall, I am pretty pleased with this clean and honest example, and a birth year to boot! Now the hunt for an earlier pre-moon, maybe a 321? Who knows...

Speedie - 4 yrs or 35 yrs old?
Hey all, i recently purchased a 2003 Speedie Pro which arrived yesterday, however to my dismay the condition was not as described bhy the seller (came covered in scratches, looked to be a daily beater on a building site. I contacted the seller and will be getting a full refund so whilst licking my wounds yesterday i began searching for a replacement and have been offered the following:Old:Year: 1976 (birth year)Model: 145.022Cal: 861Bracelet: 1171Condition: A1, just been serviced and is in perfect conditionAdditions: boxed but no papersNew:Year: 2007Model: 3570.50Cal: 1861Bracelet: 1998Condition: Excellent, some marks on claspAdditions: boxed with papersGiven the choice, which would other members go for? Both are priced roughly the same, is the fact the older one is a birth year makes it too hard to resist or should i place safe and go for the recent example with added papers?Any input is greatly appreciated.

There is the word swiss under the marker at 6 o clock of the dial.My questions are1. Is the dial match with the serial no?2. What else to look for to see whether it is fake or not?Thank you.
