Team
I am looking into two watches ( no pics)

The date just looks great so does the speedy. Like them both.

I do not flip watches - which one would you go after, why?

Thank you
Confused :)

Cal. 321 powered Speedmaster Pros are the stuff of legend - quite a few variants of the Speedmaster used the movement, so a little depends on that. The Datejust is a good watch...but it's no Moon watch

This speedy cal. 321 is the pre moon..., 1965

This isn't a fair contest. Speedie, of course.

For sure! A Speedmaster is essential to any collection.

That's a 'how long is a piece of string?' question. It is the 105.003 that's my favourite. In the UK I've seen decent ones go for anywhere between £2.5k and an eye-watering £7k. The £7k one was truly exceptional.
