I'm looking at my Ed White which I have had from new and I think yours looks correct. Certainly all the hands, the dial, bezel and pushers, not 100% sure on the crown, (the picture is a bit fuzzy) it looks like a B2 which mine has and is found on 60's Speedies. The bracelet is from the first quarter of 1967 and is correct (valuable) with No6 ends the same as mine which is from the second quarter. I can't make out the serial number of the watch but think it starts 25*******
Mine starts 2495 and is from June 1967, so if I am right yours is probably from the second half of 1967. Mine has also been serviced by STS, they are excellent and will do exactly what you want as I'm sure you know.
Very nice watch, but then I'm biased!


Many thanks for that, I thought it was from 1965, serial number starts 24

There is a very good thread by @WurstEver called Speedy Production dates, an alternative to Hartmanns Table, if you add to the thread with the first five or so numbers of your Speedy he will most likely be able to work out to within a month or so the production date of your Speedy. Wilthout any further information I'd say yours is likely to be a 1966 but may indeed be a 1965 if the next number is low enough.

I'll look into that, I've just check and mine is also 2495

In that case probably first half of 1967, but with Omega numbering you can never be sure without an Extract of Archive from the Omega Museum, costs about £120 so @WurstEver first?

I've been meaning to get an extract for a while, might as well bite the bullet

Since our watches are so close in serial numbers here are some photos of mine for comparison.



One day apart. But 400,000+ in numbering.

Wearing mine today. Recently picked up a 1035 1/67 bracelet, as the 1039 I was using will be placed on my -71.

I remember your lovely watch from an earlier thread, just shows how random serial numbers were back then!
