When thinking of Omega watches as a whole, one that really stands out beside the ck2077 after having contemplated the early pieces of the Master series.
I always had mixed feelings on this Watch. When I saw the official pictures, I fell in love with it. When I saw it in the real, I was disappointed. Well, it was some 3 ( 4? ) years ago... I had the opportunity to see it again, today, and I must say that I...
Some two or three years ago, I was offered the mighty original, and I took too much time giving my answer. I would have loved to get it! Very " décalé ", indeed, compared to the image we have of the Speedmaster. Thanks for your answer! Best, Nicolas

Jim had one when he came to visit in 2009. Hard to believe he brought a box full of SpeedO's ;-) Would that one have been an original? Maybe I should reach out for him?
i just love the look of the watch, but some owners have commented on the finish on the dial not being that good. what is your opinion of that statement? perhaps one day i'll get one, but my white dial speedy auto reduced is fulfilling the white dial speed...
i remember it being earlier than that perhaps 2008? i got confused as i believe the original dated from 1970 and havent looked it up in the book as i'm just plain lazy. i always thought the original was a prototype designed for working in sub zero tempera...
