A true Moonwatch Icon
The Omega speedmaster, also known as the ´Moonwatch´, has always been the most iconic watch made by Omega. When the 42mm beast made it to the lunar surface on the wrist of Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong the watch withstood the pressures and forces brought upon it and thus became the first watch worn on the moon. The amazing Speedmaster we are offering here is a special Omega Speedmaster Professional 145.022-68 Transitional from 1969!
Transitional
This special Omega Speedmaster runs on the famous and incredibly reliable cal. 861 manual wound movement made by Omega. This movement is placed inside a 42mm Speedmaster case with the shaped lugs we are used to seeing on speedmasters from this period. The amazing vintage dial and hands are the true star of the show, with the applied Omega logo serving as the crown and lending this watch its nickname ‘Transitional’. This rare sub reference marries the looks of the earlier 321 Speedmasters with the long minute indices and applied logo on the one hand, with the more modern and reliable 861 movement on the other.
Packed with vintage charm
Deep sunken sub-dials for its chronograph function and an incredible step dial where the minute track and the center of the dial meet, this watch leaves a warm feeling for every watch enthusiast! The overall condition of this watch is excellent, with fine vintage features like a Dot-over-Ninety bezel in beautiful and a nice patina in both the hands and hour markers. The case has some minor scratches and seems unpolished. This watch comes on an original Omega flatlink bracelet which is nicely long and has hardly any stretch. The clasp is dated to ’69 as well, confirming the authentic combination.
Was wir lieben:
- An incredibly well preserved ’69 Speedmaster with a warm, beautifully aged dial.
- Very good condition Dot-over-Ninety bezel.
- A nice, long flatlink 1039 bracelet.
Was Sie wissen sollten:
- Wenn nicht anders angegeben, ist es üblich, dass Vintage-Uhren nicht mit Box und Papieren kommen. In dem seltenen Fall, dass eine Uhr mit Box und Papieren kommt, wird es in der Beschreibung erwähnt werden. Alle Käufe kommen mit einer maßgeschneiderten schwarzen Holz Uhrenbox und Garantiekarte.
- Proven by years of reliable performance, this vintage watches are perfectly capable to withstand daily wear. Do note, however, that a vintage watch should not be assumed to be waterproof, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
