·Hi everyone,
I’m about to purchase an Omega Speedmaster MIII, but I’d really appreciate some help before I move forward.
The case has a brushed finish, but I’m not completely sure whether the brushing pattern matches the original finish of this model. On the watch I’m considering, the brushing runs horizontally, but I’ve seen the same model elsewhere with vertical brushing.
Before I buy it, I want to confirm:
Which brushing direction is correct/original for this model?
Did Omega produce this reference with different brushing patterns, or does this look like a refinish?
Any guidance or reference photos from verified originals would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
