Nice pictures of a very nice collection there, Kim!
 
The 4420 is my favorite, but I must say that 5606-707 is a rather rare variant and very nice as well.
 
Thanks for sharing and looking forward to the updates :-)
 
Best,
Hermann

I do love the variations you have here, wonderful and some quite rare :clap: The 1965 4420 is very nice and will look even better with a newer crown  ;)


But the 5606-7010 is very nice, what size is it? I have found in the past that the LM's are a little on the small size for me  ::) 
If it's not made in China, it's a fake!

The 7010 is simular sized as the rest of the 5606-7XXX 36-37mm, this watch is going to be a gift fore my brother when he turns 18 in May  :great:
If you need a bigger LM some 9XXX series is in the 38-39mm range, the 9040 is a big LM.

The 4420 is from November 66, might be one of the last ones?

Wow, do you have a case back photo, i was lead to believe that the 4420-9990 was a 1965 only construction  :86: 


I absolutely love the arrow sweep hand, just so subtile, yet such a statement in style. Thinking that they could have just used a straight hand and no one would have even questioned it.


I'll keep an eye out for a 9xxx LM  :dance:

Mate that case bask is simply gorgeous! Are the model details done in a deep etch or just the early badly wearing light etch?

I don't think its a deep etch but its quite clear. My only other watch I can compare width is the 6218 and that one don't have more than the serial left :(
