Hello, I'm planning to get my first speedy and I found this speedmaster on ebay. Can anybody give me more information about the watch, if the watch is all authentic and matching. I don't know what model it is or if it's a limited edition. Thank you. http://www.ebay.com/itm/380824605115?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network
"Military" dial? Typical eBay seller using the word "military" to hopefully get more money for his watch from a less knowledgeable buyer. Wait for more comments from the experienced Speedy guys, but I don't think that watch is "original" either - it seems like authentic Omega parts, but I don't think they all came together from Bienne as that exact watch.
yes it is a bunch of parts. It should be valued as a collection of parts. The case is a sapphire sandwich. Not many want to buy that, unless it's cheap. my guess is it's worth about 1600-2000 if auctioned. It does look nice, I like that white dial. however I would not be a bidder after 1200. Then I am notoriously cheap.
Yes its a collection of parts but quite sort after parts. The dial is off white colour and the hands are dark grey, I have the same combination on one of my Speedmasters, mine was put together by Al. The movement is 864, which I believe is a very limited run of chronometer movement, ideally it should have been put with the silver chronometer dial. A waste of that movement although it does look nice with the clear case back $2000 is probably what you could sell the parts for.
