··Prolific Speedmaster HoarderA very fine example of Omega's 125th celebration limited model. This is Omegas first Automatic Chronograph Chronometer.
This one is in very good condition, approaching NOS. I think this is a rare opportunity to acquire a clean, cared for, unmolested example of a very rare watch.
I acquired this in 2011 as part of a larger collection of speedmasters. I am selling as I am a collector of manual pre 1978 speedmasters and this watch does not fit with my criteria. When I acquired it the seller (who was a major Asian collector) had just had it serviced by an exceptional workshop - I say that because the screws are very clean (look at the movement photos) and you can see the oil in the jewels.
I have not worn it since acquisition - as I said my interest lies elsewhere. I dont like the idea of it lying unused and so it is time to move it to someone who will appreciate it.
I have compared it to other 125's on offer and I cannot see a better one.

Watch is currently in Chicago and F2F welcome, otherwise bank wire is best - Paypal as last resort! I have seller references here on OF. I am a private watch collector and I only sell to refocus my collection.
I shall be in UK at the beginning of March and could dispatch/meet in UK then if that helps.
