Killer Beeeees!!!
In Response To: Speedmaster fans... a rarity from the 80's *PIC* ()

Wow! WoW!!! This is really cool stuff, Steve!

There are a few really neat and interesting things in here, I think.

Firstly, Killer Bees!!!

Sorry, that's the first thing I thought of when I saw 'em. I want one, NOW. They weren't even that much more expensive than the, uh...Mark IV.

The other thing I found interesting is the strap choices (is that stingray?!) and the bracelets. While, the display back is obviously on (then) current ref 1479 bracelet, it looks like the Pros are on 1171s. They might be 1450s, but the links and end pieces look too flat. I dunno. It might just be me.

Even the brochure style; it's so...80s! Just great stuff.
Can you tell that I like it? Thanks much for sharing!
