Enjoying my Grail Watch...

 
 By: Pelican1960 : October 17th, 2019-19:59
......A Speedy! I received my grail watch, the Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch (hesalite crystal) on October 8. I have researched and saved for this watch for many years and I was very happy to take possession of it last week. For the past week, ...  

Thank you! [nt]

I am in love all over again. The new box smell is like new car smell.

The new watch box smell is like a new new car. The box is big.

Very worth saving for it and a true grail watch, because it is a classic piece

It’s a fun watch.

Congratulations Mark

It’s a beautiful watch, timeless, historical value, it fits every occasion, easy to wear, virtually indestructible (I can tell my son owns one) so all in all a prefect watch. What I especially like about it is that connoisseurs recognize it immediately wh...

It’s like an antique that’s still being built.....

Very nice Mark.

Your excitement comes through very clearly in your post which is great to read. I’m a big fan of the hesalite too, good choice. Every time I look at my Speedy’s dial I always think that this is THE best chronograph dial out there. It’s less so the sub dia... 

Thanks.

 
 By: Pelican1960 : October 18th, 2019-10:14
Thank you. It’s just a neat watch. The dial just pops when you glance at it.

You'll never get tired of looking at it...

...and the best part about this Speedy is that even when the imminent scratches and dings happen, it looks even cooler Enjoy to the fullest!

Thanks YpJ

for sharing your story Mark and especially thanks that our passion can also be less complicated than life (actually me) makes it. Your grail has been in the past my grail brand because my father had one Omega and I feel that along the way I may have forgo... 

Thanks Sc16

This is probably the last new watch that I’ll ever buy. I recently retired from public service, so I researched the Speedy and tried it on many times before deciding it was the watch for me. I’m not disappointed with my purchase. Mark

Big Congrats Mark!! I can feel your joy when reading your post and viewing your pictures!! This is a classic and beautiful watch full of history.

The big box is really impressive indeed. So nice to have the loupe and the big "medal" with the Sea Monster logo. I wish you will keep loving and enjoying in the best of health! Abel

Thanks Abel

 
 By: Pelican1960 : October 18th, 2019-15:02
The big box is indeed “big.” A funny story related to the purchase was that the Speedy was delivered in a very nice wooden Omega box. I called the dealer and they accidentally shipped it in the wrong box. A few days later, I received the black “suitcase.”... 

That’s a good story Pelican!! Lol!

 
 By: Subexplorer : October 18th, 2019-16:12
I much prefer the small wooden box. More practical and less space required to store it. But I should say the black suitcase is truly impressive! Enjoy watch and boxes so much!! Abel

Thanks massi

Normal jobs. Sure that watch lovers are watch lovers, the matter what they do in life. I am such a person with a normal job, so buy the whole Richard Mille collection is not a daily business. Buy an Omega, research, and enjoy it. The quality watch for eve...
