Sweet!

I wanted one really badly, until I tried it on. My wrist just isn't big enough to make it work. I took both my Speedy and GMT to compare and the Co-Axial is a LOT bigger.

Never thought of doing that! Great idea for macro shots.

Love that Speedmaster.
It is my favorite version of the Moon watch.

Those macro pics are cool. I think the clear case back is cooler on the manual wind but that co-axial is a great movement!

I agree. Nothing beats the original movement.
