Finally! My new Speedmaster

I finally got my self a Speedmaster and what a watch! But I am a bit worried, It was supposed to have "dot 90" but I cant see it anywhere, and is it supposed to have a shitty acrylic glass? Well the price was right. It even got Nasa provenance.


Too bad I got nr. 2, anyone here got nr 1 ?

You're funny!

gorgeous, gorgeous piece. Make sure to keep it and pass it down so its stays in your family.

Lol, Number 2 sums it up!
Wear it in good health?


Is there an anti-dibs available?

GUYS. NO PMS. HE ISN’T SELLING IT OK.

almost looks like a Swatch from HELL
Hype cheap bio-plastics
Expensive sales
Limit commercial distribution
Loose the real Omega fans
😁

It's premium 😁

Why? Why does it happen only to others and not to me to find these gems????

If I had such a watch, I would sell all my collection, snapped this one on a nato and smiled each time I looked at my wrist.

Be careful, though, I believe NASA is after unauthorized owners of their historic masterpieces. The lack of the case number and the luck of "swiss made" tells me that this one is from the earliest prototypes sent to NASA. Number one must be in their museum for sure, it is so precious they even do not let public see it.

Wear in good health!

Score! Looks to be an early transitional pre-pre-moon reference wherein Omega switched from Duracell to Energizer batteries in their quartz Speedmaster Professional movements.

No real watches were hurt in the making of this abomination.

Hope you did not paid money for it 😀

Not sure. Something seems wrong. Those spring bars...

Regarding the "dot 90," this refers to the dot above the 90 on the bezel of the watch, which is present on the original Speedmaster models from the 1960s. The dot is significant because it indicates the transition point from the black to the orange section of the bezel, which was used for timing purposes. However, not all Speedmaster models have this dot, and it's not essential for the watch's function.

As for the acrylic crystal, this is actually a characteristic of the original Speedmaster models from the 1960s, including the models that were used by NASA for space missions. The acrylic crystal was used because it is lightweight, durable, and shatter-resistant, making it ideal for use in space where the watch needed to withstand harsh conditions.

While some modern Speedmaster models come with sapphire crystals, the acrylic crystal is a hallmark of the original Speedmaster design and is highly sought after by collectors. So don't worry about the crystal, it's a key feature of the watch's heritage and adds to its overall charm.

It's great that your Speedmaster comes with NASA provenance, as this adds to the watch's collectibility and history. Enjoy your new watch, and wear it in good health!
