Post here : https://omegaforums.net/threads/new-member-from-france.81697/#post-1051103

And I remember one member commented that when you start with Omega, it's just the beginning of a passion.

And it's true...



Today, I come back for show you my 2nd Omega : a speedmaster ref : 176.0014 or TV dial with a caliber 1045 from Lemania ( 5100 ). Honnestly I didn't knew this caliber before but I read that it's a reliable caliber ( I hope )

Just received yesterday, I seen few on the forum.

Why I choosen this model of speedy ?
I would liked a speedy Moonwatch but on my wrist it's looked too big, so I decided to try to find another speedy, because I love the tachymeter and the story behind the Speedmaster. And when I seen this model, the shape, the TV shape, I felt in love.


So, now it's mine

I have the box ( original ? ) and the manual but not the certificat.


The bracelet is named 'bar' I prefer this version to the 'mexican' but it's personnal.








Funny things in this version as few vintages speedmaster, the back comes with a seamaster sign



All functions work









I'm not a specialist of Speedmaster so if you detect missing bad things, false hand or anythings with the watch, please don't hesitate to comment.

Thank you in advance,

Benoît

 

I don't see anything bad except some wear and polishing. I think the crown is wrong. But you obviously found a nice set incl. box and instructions.

Well done!

You say you went for this one, because the size of the "regular" Speedy was too big for your wrist? Well this one isn't much smaller and even thicker...

 

Super nice , looks like the crown is definitively not the good one, and maybe a bracelet link intermediate looks like a gap width difference correct ?

 

Love that one. I might start looking for one.

 

They are rare, especially in good condition.

But looking for one sounds like a very good idea.

 

Hi and thank you for your coments !

My bad, thought all was original :/ but have you got a picture of an original crown ? Because I can't find the differences between mine and another
Do you know if the buttons are the good ones ?

True but I don't know maybe because of this special shape look like less big that the moonwatch on my wrist

The bracelet looks correct for me maybe on the pictures 4, the second link on the right look little bit smaller but anyway I will take off for my wrist

Thank you for your help

 

I have a NOS 176.0014. But I can't send any pics before the weekend.

You will have to do some Google picture research and find that the crown should be thicker and the OMEGA logo different.

 

Is it the good one ?

Thank you for your help, do you think I need to change the crown by an original ?

Thank you

 

No. It's wrong as well.

Look at this one:



Sorry, but I don't know the original part number of this crown.

Anyway, if you need further assistance, send me a PM. I will try to help the best I can.

 

Had the chance to buy one of these a few months ago. I passed because I felt it was just too big for my small wrists.

Thanks for sharing. That is an absolute stunner

 

Gush, look really difficult to find the true on internet, my pic come from chrono 24 ...

But thank you very much for the pic, I will try to find the part number for this crown, honnestly for me it's not a big deal but better to know that it's not the good crown.

If I have question, I have your user

Oh interresting @Lotus_Eater8815 and which omega have you take so?

 

Come back to me whenever you like.

That's, what I believe, are Forums for.

 

The same watch as yours, a 176.0014. Not as immaculate though. I love the 70s vibe with the TV dial but I have 6.25 wrists. Lol

Nothing’s gonna stop me from admiring them, though!

 

We are agree, the shape is really captivanting on this model.

 

Apologies for bringing up an old thread but I recently got my hands on the TV Dial with bar bracelet. Had a few questions and was hoping some of you could help.
@OMEGuy I cannot message you directly?

 

Hi @goonz , let us know about your questions.

Regards,
Ben

 

Hi Ben thanks for the response, I just decided to send my watch to Omega and have them restore it. Thanks again.

 

Is a seamaster caseback correct for this watch? I have a 1045/5100 although a different ref. and it has a speedmaster caseback.
