Yeah. It was a pain in the butt to get... should get easier as the market softens.

I can't still make my mind up to which dial color looks best on those Daytona but I think white LN 001 edges the black dial model

What a nice match up . Your watch's blue hue second also matches the color of your car

Thanks! And the colors aren't an exact match, but the watch and the car go together pretty well!

Really loving the Submersible, Panerai makes a quality watch and this blue diver rounds out my collection really nicely!

Not nearly as impressive as most of what gets posted here, but my first tiptoe into watch enthusiasm.

So my wife gave me this Speedy Professional for Christmas a few years back. It came with a leather strap and deployment clasp. The strap and clasp always felt weak to me, and I never really liked the metal bracelets on the the Speedy's. I picked up an Omega Rubber strap for the watch with new style deployment clasp. A lot of folks like the NATO strap and I may eventually try one, and the rubber strap isn't considered Kosher on a Speedy but I'm loving this combo.

Yeah it's different but on a modern speedy less of a deal. Try nato and leather as well see what you like.

I just took a leather strap off, I hated it. It seemed quite flimsy IMHO. I usually wear a Rolex Sea Dweller so wanted something a bit more substantial feeling on my wrist.

So I had one of those straps on it for a while, and I think it looked good off my wrist but it seemed flimsy on the wrist. I think it's as much about the feel for me.

I looked at that Strap but wasn't sure about the yellow script. Looks good with your watch though.

Thanks!

It was the rubber strap that came with my particular model/dial of Speedmaster Racing.

I believe Omega also has versions with blue, red, and plain black script, since the 40mm Racing model was offered with a variety of dual color options!

I accidentally bought this on Seiko Fifty Five Fathoms custom on ebay last week. It showed up last night and I tossed a random leather strap on it. I have a black sailcloth strap on order. I am loving it so far.

Big fan of that watch. Maybe I'll pick myself up a pre-wedding gift, would go great with my suit for the wedding come Sept.
