    The Flightmaster has always been my grail watch but this one is right up there. The price unfortunately makes it out of the question as things stand. There is a super rare Speedmaster Mk2 with light grey dial and orange hands and alternate minute markings which is spellbinding. Grey and red is far more common for these but not as nice. I stared at one of those along with the Flightmaster in a store for about a year (when they were current models!) so I'm not imagining the orange color variant. 😉

      If you drop glue on it I will hunt you down 😅 sometimes there is just enough room to be able to remove the spring in order to fit a new one so you might be lucky, The springs are not expensive.
