Double AD incoming - My choice for a daily and evening watch

I didn't think they would arrive this quick but I am extremely excited I will be able to wear the gold sub over the holidays! I chose the speedy as a daily watch to fly under the radar and bring a ton of variation to my now small collection. It has been a long journey for me this year, I flipped about a dozen watches in the last 12 months and these are the two I have settled on.

Happy Holidays TRF, I wish the best for you and yours.

Josh

I don't know I'll ever like a watch as much as my Speedmaster, great choice. Yellow gold sub is just amazing too. Doesn't get much better than that for a pair you can take anywhere.

Hey Josh, you have put in your time and have done your research! You have there a pair that many would love to own. Congrats on a beautiful Gold Piece, and speedy.

Remember, that before you think about flipping the Gold Sub, spend a day with her in the sun, and at dusk... it should put any reservations away..

Beautiful combo, I have my eyes set on a Speedy Pro for the near future. Which Speedy Pro did you choose, Heaslite or Sapphire?
