What should be the next move?
So after acquiring my AP elephant recently I've been very happy with it and is getting along with the scratches better however, I'll be graduating my bachelor degree in two months and considering making one last change in my collection before continuing my master in Berlin next year so I wanted your opinion my current collection consist of a corum bubble, AP elephant, gmt master 2 tone, and hulk. I'll never be trading my hulk since it's my first watch with my name on the card. However, I'm considering adding an omega speed master or a PAM 372 or Pam 292 on a brown strap which I've been eyeing a few years back if go panerai i'll he leaning on the 292 however, I've notice that the price of panerai is going had so if not these choices should I flip my AP elephant to a 44 novelty steel? Or gmt master to a twotone racing dial daytona? or lastly get a bracelet to go with the elephant instead ? What would ur choices be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Speedmaster 861 Opinion Request
I am new to collecting and would like your opinion(s) on a Speedmaster cal 861, circa early 1970's, that I recently purchased. The previous owner replaced the hands and hazelite crystal but, all else remains original including the dial. It came with its original bracelet but I put on a nice alligator band because I love the look and also so that I don't mess up the bracelet. All is in excellent vintage condition including the bracelet which show very little signs of wear. The opinions as the the following will be greatly appreciated.1. Does the replacement of the hands with new affect the value?2. What is your opinion as to its value with the new hands?3. What do you think the value would be if it was completely original.
