: the speedy was: -a very solid case and
: highly resisting to shock plexiglass
: -a legendary movement which established its
: superiority by proving its great
: robustness,accuracy,reliability and

: than the valjoux but it didn't have the
: criteria to match and be compared with
: lemania
: The speedies won easily gainst the most
: prestigious rivals including the Daytona
: 6238.
