    Selling several watches that I haven’t been wearing. Next up is my vintage Speedmaster Mark III Professional, ref. 176.002 cal. 1040. Watch is in very good vintage condition. Although not perfect, the case is very sharp and original, and unpolished. This sets it apart from almost every Mark III on the market which are either badly polished or refinished.

    Learn more about the Speedmaster Mark III here.

    Mark III pilot style case is unpolished and in excellent condition. It retains its sharp edges but does show some minor surface marks. This case has original horizontal brushing.

    Black professional D3 dial is original and very attractive with lume intact.

    Hands are original with syringe/needle type hour hand and lume is intact with patina matching the dial.

    Bezel is original tachymetre bezel in great shape.

    Pushers and crown functioning as they should.

    Movement sets, starts, stops, resets, and keeps time, service history is unknown. I have not wound and set it often and when I do it runs around 30 seconds fast. It is probably due for a service and I recommend it if you plan on wearing this daily.

    Comes on a non-Omega oyster-style bracelet with Mexican Omega clasp. Bracelet fits a 7.75 inch wrist.

    Issues
    • There are scratches and dings on the case and caseback
    • Unknown service history.
    • Bracelet is non-Omega

    Positives
    • Sharp unpolished case
    • Clean original dial and hands with nice patina

    Provenance
    I bought the watch from a fellow collector in 2019. No idea how many prior owners.

    Comes with
    Watch, bracelet

    Price
    Asking $2,300 USD (was $2,750, then $2,500, then $2,400) which includes domestic US shipping. NO TRADES PLEASE. Please contact me via pm with questions or offers.

    Payment
    Wire, cash (watch and I are in the Chicago area), Venmo, Zelle. Paypal if you have references.

    Buyer
    I prefer selling domestically to keep things simple. I will sell internationally on a case by case basis (in other words, buyer needs solid recent references and must accept full customs declaration and cover extra shipping cost). Buyer must have solid references.

    Returns
    No returns unless watch is grossly misrepresented. I make no promises as to water-resistance, expose it to water at your own risk.

    References
    I’m an individual collector, not a dealer, and have no affiliation with Omega. I have been active on watch forums for several years and have numerous references as a buyer, trader, and seller. I have perfect eBay feedback, where I have also bought and sold several watches.

    That is a fantastic example and really well priced considering condition.

    Wish I could buy it but sadly I'm not in the position. Best of luck with the sale, what a watch!
