    Well it's time to thin the herd.
    And this being my first sale please let me know if I have missed any pertinent info.

    $2000.00 OBO
    PayPal and CONUS Shipping included.
    Watch is in NYC

    Up for you consideration is a late 80's
    Speedmaster cal 861. Looks to have been polished in past. Comes with an 1171/1 band and 633 end links. Dial has a pleasing patina and case has usual wear. I believe this to be an honest overall example and would make a great daily beater.

    Cons:
    -Hands have missing lume on the hour hand and has flaked tritium floating on the dial.
    -Has corrosion and pitting on the under side of pushers
    -Hasn't been serviced while in my possession.
    -Scuff marks on the top part of bezel
    -Owner is lousy photographer

    Pros

    - Well, it's a Speedmaster!



    And now for the photo's

    After an omega spec service this will be a great watch. The omega spec service will replace pushers crown and crystal which they need, and I think it would be a false economy to do it without the full service.

    I do not underestimate the potential of these 1980's watches, nor the rarity of a good condition dial and bezel. (To be fair this bezel is a bit battered but suits the watch)

    Ofrei still supply the bracelt and end pieces for $471.

    The math on this one isn't hard.....

    Good luck with the sale!
