    Thank you for your response.
    Steel bezel can see for the first time. To the Japanese market were produced special versions of the Speedmaster.
    fjf, Your watch is very nice.

    Omega should have called it a Slowmaster since it isn't a chronograph. :p

    It is a nice watch, but is it vintage?. The slowmaster dates from 1990 only!.

    At my age I can't get my mind around anything from 1990 being vintage.;)
