Speedy Tuesday Treat: Worth Upgrading? Steve compares WD1861 v 1862 v 1863 side by side (and discusses WD1860)
Thanks Steve aka u/turdbogls!
Steve compares the current WD1863 Speedy with earlier versions. His take on the WD1863 is its subtle refinements: * 1mm slimmer width & refined case * 0.3mm thinner case * 1mm slimmer bezel (see the pic) * 39mm bezel and ~41mm case * Crystal/AR/dial identical 1862 v 1863.

The long awaited and really interesting dial variants are most likely coming in this WD1863 case.
Worth a look if you're into Speedy homages, to see WD1862 v 1863.
- WD1860 is discussed as a $50ish cheaper option; its bezel, case and crystal are all thicker (bezel is still 40mm and case ~42mm).
1860 as value deal or save for the 1863? If you really want to keep a WD Speedy (or if you're keen on other dials), this exceptional crystal is something you WILL appreciate every time you look at this watch.
Some really interesting comments below, too.
