About the hands and the bezel
Hi,
According to the caliber's number, this Speedmaster is from 1960. I do not have the original caseback, so I don't know if it is a 2998-1 or -2.
The hands are aftermarket. Omega has stoped the production since 1971.
The bezel is a later Omega part.
Best,
Cédric

Hey, Cédric, happy to welcome you here!
So, you made the plunge and you decided to join us here, obviously? Not a big fan of the Speedie, but this 2998 is one of the few exceptions I appreciate a lot: Straight lugs, Dauphine hands, small and elegant case, that is one of my fav Speed. Looking fo...

Welcome to the forum .....
Hello Cedipro Nice Speedy..... any pics of your bracelet ? Is this watch your daily wearer ? Wow at 23 and you have a 2998 ...... where do you go from there? Good hunting Bill Sohne
I've just taken other pics!
Thank's for your welcoming! This 2998 is not my daily wearer. As it is not waterproof, I am more confident with more recent watches. Here are new pics of the 2998 : More pics of the bracelet : Best, Cédric...

bezel correct?
Hi Cedric, a very beautiful CK 2998! The dial is in stunning condtions! Is it a -5 or a -61 or -62? Actually I do not think that the bezel is the old correct one. It is a later replacement bezel. You can see that at the size of the numbers and especially ...
Agree with the bezel
and the hands appear to be later replacements as well. Overall though still a very nice watch.
