These are the watches with the patches on the sub-dials commemorating the various space missions (Gemini, Apollo, and Skylab). I believe it's ref. 3599.99...not 100% though. I know the 1/40 complete cases of 23 are selling for $150,000 USD plus. What about as stand-alone pieces? Any value?

Visit to HSWA in NYC
I stopped by HWSA again today to drop off a vintage piece that needed servicing. It's a simple 2-hand manual movement.I got a quite a chuckle out of the staff claiming that they have service turnaround times somewhat under control now stating that std complications with auto movement have 26weeks TA while manuals have 21weeks TA In addition, I cannot believe they were proud to say that each turnaround no longer has a 16week additional delay on top of the std turnaround times making each 42weeks and 37weeks WTF I thought about asking for Patrick who is the service director there, but half of me said why bother knowing they would pitch the same BS story and excuses.My patience and loyalty for the brand are really on thin ice.

Close up on 114060 w/ Rubber B strap
So just switched my oyster bracelet to a rubber b all black for my 114060. Wasn't sure at the beginning, but can't stop thinking about the OF on Daytona WG. So went to my local rubber b dealer and got them switched. Couldn't be happier! The sub looks like another new watch, been wearing them these couple of days ..
