Hello dear Alex for your kind comments. It is always a pleasure to share pictures and feelings about our pieces here...
... this is a wonderful variant of modern Speedy which I feel didn´t receive the deserved attention from general public, may be because potential customers in general are accustomed to black dials on the Speedmaster, and only true fans or collectors can understand that the beautiful chocolate dial is a nod to vintage speciments.
As a matter of fact I had to special order minethrough the local Omega Boutique as it had been imported in very very limited quantity in my Country. I had to wait several months for it to arrive.
I have been playing with different types of leather straps for a change and I have enjoyed this straps play so much.
Thank you for your kind comments about my pictures. It is part of the fun of watch collecting taking pictures of them and I enjoy that so much.
Of course I also look forward to more chocolate exchanges my dear Alex! Cheers! Abel

It was a rough Wednesday at my pool tournament - nothing at 3-ball, and the same . . .
. . . for 8. Lotsa fun, good times . . . but no wins. Supper wasn't up to par, either . . . The Girlfriend ordered her vegetables well done, but everything, including my sturgeon, came out charred. Some days . . . (sigh) . . .
Beautiful Chocolate dial Speedy Alex! It is one of my favorite modern versions and mine receives much wrist time.
It´s a shame it was removed from the catalog and I feel fortunate to having mine and I remember the story of your lucky finding this one. I´m glad you enjoy yours so much. Keep loving and enjoying it and thank you for these superb shots! All the best, Abe...
Hi Abel!
I am also very happy to hear how much you love and use it long term. I also foresee this to be a long lasting love as its charm and honesty is disarming. It has grown massively on me, even though I lusted after it to start with. Thanks for the pictures! T...

Hello Alex!! I will seach my HD and look for some pictures for you with much pleasure...

searching my HD. You will view a textured dark brown straps on a vintage Speedy with its tropic dial now, but these straps were installed on the chocolate dial Speedy before and one of my favorites. Presently I’m wearing it on these light brown straps: Or...
Wowww!!! Dear Abel, thanks so much for these amazing pictures and straps!!
I have to say you made me love the chocolate speedy even more with these possibilities! The first two pictures are to die for, for example. I agree about your comment on the colors - I think sand, taupe, grey, khaki, could all look amazing with it. I will...
My big pleasure Alex! Glad to know you liked these straps...

I agree dear Abel. Taking time makes it even more enjoyable when one succeeds.
The Milanese looks very nice as well. I have once also tried it on my 5015 FF and it looked awesome. I have a weak spot for Milanese’s overall. Have a great start to the week my friend, Alex
