On offer today is a classic & timeless speedy variant based on the Triple Date model: the Mark 40 with the black dial & bezel; ref 3520.50.
The smaller reference 3520.50 speedmaster is based with an ETA movement and features an automatic chronograph alongside a 24-hour indicator, pointer date as well as day & month wheels.
While it’s ‘Hodinkee’ Brethren may be the more popular of the Mk40’s, I believe the black dial variant is a undiscovered-gem - with additional complications & a wearable size over the professional speedy; its a surprise why these mk40’s aren’t as sought after.
Dated to 2005 and presenting with its complete double box, Cardholder & Warranty card - this lovely example of a Mk40 speedmaster is presented in ‘Very Good’ Condition with minor surface wear visible on its case & bracelet, the hands also have some patina presenting in a warmer cream tone.
