    I think that price is optimistic in current times.

    I don't like the lume.

    The back looks polished too.

    It is being sold as completely original.

    I don't see it

    looks like the lume was applied with a butter knife.
    maybe a 2998-1 or -2 dial?
    yeah, the price is...unrealistic.

    But....but... it's a tropical dial.... Surely thats worth an extra 18,000-20,000 $
    ;)

    These dials do seem to to go tropical. Nice, but incorrect for a 2998-62.

    I would have seen a stepped dial in that speedmaster101 dial, but I gues it's more of a ridge on the dome?

    I've got a nice 105.002 I'd let go for the low low price of $27,000. Any takers?

    Haha crazy where this is going..

    I have a Rolex collector which I whatsapp.. He asks me questions about omegas and I ask him questions about rolexes.

    He wanted to pay 5k euro for this speedy: only because it went tropical:

    The most crazy part is that the watch was sold within a few minutes.. Because the seller is active as well in the Rolex scene..

    Not only the dial is incorrect but it also does not have a silver rehaut.

    This is not crazy.
    There is a market for this tropical speedmaster.

    You have seen the damage on the dial as well? Around 7 o'clock?

    This watch has a big scratch on the dial but the seller did mention it from the start. Im surprised it went that fast.

    That's a pretty nasty looking mark
