Hey everyone, I was wondering if I could get some quick input on a early 70s Omega Speedmaster Mark II movement. I am mostly concerned with the movement being in good health and having minimal parts replaced. Thanks for any input you guys can give!
Serialnumber 296xxxxx is from nearly 1969 but i see a delrin brake.In 69 Omega use this part always in metal.
Maybe it helps.Here a inside photo from my oktober 1971 made watch. But only a Speedy MK1 Btw it looks much cleaner than yours
Metal brake in the OP's photo. The movement is not in great condition though - is dirty and has clearly been exposed to significant moisture at some point.
I know usually movements with water damage have dial issues too. Here is a pic from the front. Looks like the lume is being reapplied.
Ended up going for over $2000 US so I passed on this one. I’m going to wait on a 166.032 instead and save up some more.
