·Up for sale is a very nice pre-moon cal 321 Speedy that I found via the original owner's son. The watch was serviced by Omega in 2012 (I have supporting receipts from this service, which I will include). See below for additional info:
Dial: The dial on this Speedy is in excellent condition, with a pleasing and warm patina. The dial is similar to the "glossy" dials that are often seen on Ultraman examples as well, which produces a different effect on the wrist than other matte Professional dials.
Hands: Hands are service replacements. Omega returned all parts that were replaced as part of the service in 2012 and hands were not included in the package, so my assumption is they were changed at a prior service at an earlier point.
Case: Case is in good shape, with signs of prior polishing but original facets / case lines still present. Caseback is in great shape, with a crisp hippocampus engraving. Crown is a service replacement.
Bezel: DON bezel is in exceptional condition, with no major dings or scratches.
Movement: Movement is very clean, with no visible wear or damage. As mentioned above, the watch was serviced in 2012 and the original owner's son said it has been worn sparingly since then (for "big occasions" only). I do not formally time my watches, but in three days of wear, it kept good time and all chronograph functions worked crisply and correctly. As always, a service is recommended in the next few years, but it should perform well for the foreseeable future.
Accessories: The watch is accompanied by a mint 1175 bracelet with 47 end links. I will also include paperwork from the 2012 servicing and all parts that were returned by Omega. The watch is NOT being sold with the strap pictured here, but if important, I will work with the buyer to find an acceptable price for the strap as well.
My asking price is $8,250 or best offer, which includes fully insured Fedex Priority shipping. Payment via PayPal (F&F or add 3% if using PP) or direct bank wire. US sale strongly preferred. Face-to-face in Chicago is also welcome for local buyers. Finally, I have plenty of references available as a buyer and seller that I can provide if necessary. Thanks for looking and thanks to OF for the space.
