Don’t see many of them, looks good. Are you happy with it?
ended up with 2 of these...
You’ve made me feel better about my own impulsive purchasing. One on each wrist?

Extremely happy. I tried on a speedy pro but it was too big. This is perfect. And I think it’s actually much nicer than the pro [hears sharp intake of breath across the world #sacrilege]
As well as the size I prefer the sloping tachymetre bezel and the slightly domed sapphire and the textured dial (as well as the pattern in the sub dials the main dial actually has a v subtle vertical brushing).
Speedmaster Racing 40mm - discontinued now but found an unworn example. The new speedy racing is 44mm...
This one is pretty much the same dimensions as the planet ocean 39.5 (i.e. c.40mm diameter, 45.5mm lug to lug, 14mm depth, 19mm lug width). So great for smaller wrists. And unlike the 38mm speedy reduced this is a proper chronometer grade co-axial chronograph movement.
