    I think I'm still having trouble with the movement even after service. As you can see below, the hour sub dial is at 1.5 hours. This just randomly happens and I only suddenly notice when I check my watch, I've never seen the hand move. The first few times I thought I simply forgot to reset my chronograph after being on for a while, and that I stopped the chronograph right at 12 which I do. But I definitely reset the chronograph this morning when I saw this, and I haven't operated it since... But when I checked my watch at... well I guess at 2:06... the hour sub hand was moved to the 1.5 hour position. In all cases it has been in the same 1.5 hour position, again the first few times I thought it was me... but now I think I have an issue with the movement.

    Any Speedmasters owners ever see this or hear of it?

    I was a Speedmaster (Moonwatch) owner some years ago and never experienced it. I’m pretty sure I haven’t heard of it either.

    Turns out it's a thing:

    And I'm now noticing that the hours hand is moving gradually. I just didn't notice it before

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    That is pretty cool looking. Though if it’s an action/adventure style watch and a colorful strap to go along with it, I am a fan of the old rescue orange.

    Like that.
