im about to
pick up the 50th one tomorrow! can anyone please help me. im being told the least amount I can pick one of these up for is about 6500 used! I called one boutique and they quoted me 9k for this watch, 9k!!!
A reason why I wanted the 50th was because of the enamel dial, the gourgous box and the tools, buckle and extra strap it came with, making it very easy and enable me to not have to go in search of all those pieces(the strap and buckle).
Can anyone suggest a nice speedmaster for me, maybe a place to buy the straps and buckles?
should i just get the 50th at the 6500 price?
Thanks!
Omega 50th anniv, .........where did it all go so wrong...
It should have been probably for collectors the most important collectable Speedmaster ever.... I remember being so hyped up for this piece, and at the time I had a collection , which when I look back today was lacking in nothing, 2915, Apollo Soyuz, 1967...
I think Omega does too many LEs as it is...
These days, the only true LEs are the Museum Collection pieces. I do like ones like the meteorite dial, but the ones done for movie promotions and those that only play slight homage to the original are not generally my cup of tea.
the 32xx or handwound version of the 33xx is an insult to the original model
The piguet based 32xx is an insult to the original 321 or 861 powered speedy, it is not what has made the reputation of Omega in terms of accuracy, reliability and durability. The 321 was a reference and is a reference in terms of chrono movements, perhap...

I like your number
What I most liked of your watch is the number of it .....the one I would have chosen if I could , also a fantastic piece, thanks for sharing
i agree with mrsnak. we're just fed up with ltd ed speedies
they seem to think of any reason to have one. if sales of the speedy pro moon watch drop they just think of a reason, slap a new dial on it and call it a ltd ed. i used to collect the museum pieces and had the first 5, but the prices went to just ridiculo...

sybelite, personally i wouldnt bother, just buy a Moonwatch, the original, the iconic, the only one. if you buy the 50th with you them want the 55th, 60th, or look for the 25th etc ?? there is no end to the speedy ltd ed's and once you start where do you ...

hi KC, things at home are progressing, just solicitors arguing over stupid things at the moment. hopefully that will be over soon and i'll be able to actually move. best G
the problem is, if you take away the Speedmaster moon watch..
..away from Omega's stable, the brand Omega itself may no longer be remembered as being legendary. The Speedie has built and spearheaded Omega to a great order in a way like collectors associating the legendary Valentino Balboni to testing every single La...
I just purchased...

you cant go wrong with...
you cant go wrong with that. its a shame you havent seen the shell cordovan nato straps many of us use before you ordered the croc and deployment. if you dont know about shell cordovan google it, but take it from me and Matt and several others that its th...
I plan on
Ordering a bunch of natos, thanks for that brand suggestion! I just literally ordered an omega sporty alligator strap and deployment buckle from an omega dealer, will be here tomorrow, will snap some fresh pics when its on! Thanks
