    125th anniversary of the brand not to be confused with the upcoming 125th anniversary of the use of the name Omega in 2019...
    An interesting Speedmaster... as used by cosmonaut Vladimir Dzhanibekov during the 7 days 21 hours Soyuz T-6 mission docked onto the Salyut 7 space station in June 1982

    interesting, out of the "2000".....there are at least 4 visible on watch.recon as available in the last month, as well as one I know of on a Canadian forum that does not show up there.

    Well, that's the whole point of the article. It's not 2000 but way more than that especially if we consider Omega Museum's data...

    lol...well, also true. Having said that I don't think the limited production number (or rather the lack of) ever had any effect on the value of the watch. It's interesting to see how the prices pretty much stagnate around the 2k mark, maybe even lower. For a Speedmaster, that is the only model with such design, with such a movement, made for such an important date...the list goes on and on :)
