    Hello,
    i would be interessted in your opinion on a Speedy Pro LCD.
    Do you think this wath is collectible?
    I´ve got some old Speedy´s (145.022-68, Mark II, IV) ans some old Seamasters 176.007.
    I´m not sure what to do with this 186.004.
    I bought still working with a scrached glas, pushers not realy nice an some dings on the case.
    So i put it to a omega expert and was suprised as he told me that all parts (pushers, glas, lcd mask, gaskets) are available at omega. He refinished the case a little bit, changed all pushers and put the new glas and lcd mask on it.
    Now it looks pretty nice and is waterproof again. But I´m not sure what to do with it.
    What is your opinion? Is a LCD Speedy pro a collectible watch?

    Yes is the simple answer. If you are selling it can I call dibs on it?

    Personally, I'd say yes, they're getting collectible on the following evidence
    A/ They have Lyre lugs and Speedmaster Branding
    B/I like them, so does Lillatroll and I'm not sure but Spacefruit might too
    C/prices on eBay have gone crazy

    I really like them and have one of my own. I think they are slowly increasing in value and although collectable I'm not sure they will attain the high value of other Speedmasters.
