We have here, the Omega Speedmaster limited edition (LE) from 1983 and the very first 42mm "BI-COLOR" model in DD 145.0022. This particular Speedmaster LE model was made from 1982 to 1985 and rarely come to market in it's original UNPOLISHED condition and with guarantee paper. This particular specimen was originally purchased via Ebay from a reputable Japanese seller many collector know of here. There are wear marks, surface scratches throughout the lugs, case and case back. There are also some pitting on the end links consistent with a worn and unpolished piece. Overall condition is good or 85% (TZ grade) for a beautiful 37 years old bird. Bracelet itself is stretched and is in 80% type condition. Lastly, the bezel was replaced at some point with a black bezel (original bezel should have gold fonts). A dark brown vintage leather strap or dark brown rally strap will be included as part of the package to make up for this.

Again, this is a rarely come to market bird that is in all original and unpolished format with original warranty paper. I will also take some closer up shots of the case and lugs during the weekend and make them available. Please feel free to message me with any questions and I will be happy to address them the best I can ๐Ÿ˜€

Few quick shots to start:



Price: $7777 via wire and shipped within CONUS or $8250 for trade value.

24 hour no questions asked return policy (less shipping) is standard for me as a seller.

Will trade towards a Zenith silver dial El Primero Chronometre Moonphase with bracelet in full set format.

Many references for your review over 10+ years of collecting and a local deal here in NYC is always fantastic thumbsup.gif

Thanks for looking,

The brown rally strap (part of the package) will fit up a 7.5 inch wrist and was originally ordered from Turkey.
