A few months ago, I posted pictures of my pristine, late model, Speedmaster 105.002-62. It was all original with the correct baton hands. Yesterday, a package arrived, and my "62" was reunited with his younger identical twin brother! It appears both boys have led similar, pampered, lives (although thousands of miles apart) because the Younger is, except for the movement number, identical to the Older. Both are, I believe, completely original. Their movement numbers are just 16 digits apart! The dials and hands are both in wonderful condition. Tropical too I dare say. Bezels are both pristine but one has a very slight dent. A good thing as I can now tell them apart. Older had his case opened by the wrong tool. Not so with Younger. Identical original 7912 bracelets with #6 end links. Both buckles are engraved with the same production date, 4th quarter, 1963. Even the original crowns, with the flat feet, are still intact! Crystals have the Omega emblem as well. Both cases are hard and sharp. Never polished I believe. After 54 years of separation, the Older 20525377 is reunited with Younger 20525393. Perhaps I'll use this photo for my Happy Holidays card in December.
Great pair! I have never said that to a guy before. You may as well find the 15 born between them. Enjoy and dibs on one.
some tribes in Africa consider twins to be bringers of bad luck. I am more than willing to provide a home for one of the brothers. Just looking out for you
No, from what we observed at Omega, I think that there is a block of 105.002s at least between 20.525.370 and 20.525.460, all produced early 1964. Very high numbers for a 105.002, but too early date for a 105.003.
Omega is not a precise art ... Two pieces very beautiful ... Reference produced for just over a year, these are the last production with Baton hands ( first were fitted Alpha hands ) Congratulations !!!!!!
