A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE SPECIAL WATCHES FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTOR

145.022-69 (1971) Straight Writing

An unusually attractive example of a rare -69 Straight Writing. The dial has turned a dark chocolate brown, while remaining in very good condition.

Bought from a private owner via a broker in Hong Kong, which fits with the oral history as the extract also shows Hong Kong.

This is one of the most attractive Speedmasters I know.
