Smith's Chronometric


Looking to buy one of these, originally fitted to Bantams and a host of small British light weights. One with the regular white numbers on a black background will be fine and dandy. I only posted this pic 'cos I've NEVER seen one with this red on white layout, if anybody knows what they were fitted to, it would be nice to know.
In fact when a speedo does turn up it will almost definitely want rebuilding so it will be worth the ask to see if these faces are available.

  2. I got one for ya! Got to dig it out of a box. It's off a 1954 bantam and was working when I took it apart.

    1. Cool as a Polar bear's scrotum Chris, what did you take apart the 54 Bantam or the speedo.
      Email me mate, and we'll get it sorted!
