Omega

Got this one last summer, and have been overly content with it. In 20 years of collecting, I can't think of another watch that offers so much at this pricepoint. And I find the same high level of enjoyment wearing this as I do an AP or The Freak. Bravo Om...  

It was my grail when I was 15-16 And only about 30 years later I bought one During this 30 years I had several Patek, AP, Lange, zenith, JLC, Rolex, and many others But it took me long to buy that speedmaster and I don’t know why Only thing I know is.... ... 

20 years of AP, Panerai, Ulysse Nardin and some others for me... and then finally I got this Omega. We all experience types of evolution as a collector / enthusiast. My current phase, which started to take shape these past 5 years, is only buying watches ... 

Looks awesome on your wrist too...😉

This watch indeed gives a lot of bang for a buck. What I love about it is that it’s inconspicuous, sporty yet strangely also a touch of elegance. One of those watches you can wear every time everywhere and at any occasion. Add to it that it will never bre... 

A Family piece!

Because my son subsequently declared my entire collection “family property” as well and took off with my Overseas Chrono haha. Which is great after all nothing as gratifying as watching your kids have become watch addicts as well and both now have a nice ... 

I also see an Apollo 8 in your future Michael but it might not be your last Speedmaster either

This one is so pleasurable, why not?

I have only been watch-collecting for 13 years, and only recently did I "see the light" Every watch collector, truly, does need to own a speedmaster at some point in their collecting career. Thoroughly-enjoying my ashamedly-non-moon-related Speedie ...  

also nice orange accents ! looks great on you

... both in its black dial or silver dial. The orange/red accents on indexes and handset and on the bezel "Tachymetre" word add a very special sporty touch to the watch and look awesome on the wrist. Though I personaly prefer the more traditional manual m... 

Thank you, Abel, Truly, thank you. I am more than enamored by this watch. The amalgamation of modern technology and classical looks leads to a superb final product.

... makes a wonderful product on our wrists. Keep loving and enjoying so much! Cheers! Abel.

It has been years, unfortunately, since I "pulled one back". I am known as a gun enthusiast, and I am, but I prefer shooting a bow. So peaceful and relaxing.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for the compliments on the photo

I love the dials and details, but they are too thick and look funny on my wrist. But maybe not a bad thing, I could not afford as many as I would like to try!

Worn by heroes of the race to conquer space and available for us to own. Keep enjoying it Michael ! ...  

I wish 10 years ago I chased one from years before that. Such charm!

many watches in my collection but the moonwatch has an amazing value...may be the best value. Also it is generally available so Omega (at least for now) doesn't play the game of others..I love that. And of course is the brand of 007

What a novel idea - make a watch so many people want, make enough that the wait is never too long (if at all), and price it fairly. WOW!

I consider myself somewhat seasoned as a collector, but it took many years to open my eyes towards this light. Better late than never!

I would gleefully add that one some day....

It wears smaller than 42mm too. I agree in toto with you sir that a good collection should have at least one Speedmaster Moonwatch. ...  

The links feel soft and smooth, good qualities for a metal bracelet!

Looks like it it getting much wrist time 👍 best regards

Thanks for reading the post.

... as well as its timeless design. Otherwise, it is a very practical timepiece, a size which pleases almost everyone, etc. You illustrate your comments with some beautiful shots. Keep enjoying and loving it! Cheers! Abel

Your photos, and those of so many others here, were wonderful tools when I made the decision to grab one!

Full agreement!

Bought my Speedy Pro in September. Enjoying it a great deal and I use the chronograph more than I expected. It’s a fun complication. The watch keeps excellent time as well.

I love watching the white hands move atop the black dial.

A true classic and great value for money Keep on enjoying it! Cheers

I should have engaged this brand earlier in my collecting days. They deliver everything I am looking for in a watch.

Seems that you’ve found one of those watches that seem to have it all, including affordability. It is good to have and enjoy those watches. The bracelet is very good, but the speedmaster is algo a “strap monster”, you can those a nato, a vintage style one... 

The bracelet has been great so far, but it seems many straps would be wonderful with this case and dial.
