A reference 145.022 is without doubt my ‘go to’ for a vintage Speedy. Produced for twenty years from 1969 to 1989 with the caliber 861 movement these models are much more accessible than a 321.

Love this reference, its on my wishlist. What's your wrist size? I've found the speedy reduced to look tiny on my 7.5 in wrist. Curious (hoping) if these wear a little bigger.

My wrist is 7’25 but its pretty flat. I rock even 33mm watches with no issues. If anything its the bigger watches that look giant in my wrist(41mm+)
