·Tempting. Might pull the trigger.
Ticks pretty much all the GADA boxes for me. Been looking for a rare-bird Speedy fitted with a helium release valve that I can wear to the lowest depths of space, get hearthside again and trip the light fantastic at the Executive Ball where I can dazzle all the high rollers with my 12 Blue Sapphire Gems marking the hours, before heading off to the Private Golf Course to wow my friends with a detailed description of moon phases. Could even time my Casino VIP Baccarat Hands using that single White Gold Pusher. And then have my watchmaker reset the chrono using his matchless Lubricating Oils.
That, my friends, is one Fine Swiss Timepiece.
Tempting. Might pull the trigger.

No there is no water under the crystal, but the bottom push knob popped off after it was serviced from Omega. So, moisture has go in and it needs to be serviced again. I dont have the money now, but if someone wants to pay for an Authentic one, not knockoff from Japan or wherever, I'm not budging on price. My watchmaker said that this watch is Discontinued and a piece of history, so it will continue to gain value over time. And if I decide to sell it, to ask a number that you won't regret in 5 years when gold is higher and the watch is rarer. Thanks
I'll revise my initial thought about it being through a fire - it was a dumpster fire, just like his listing...

Was he sitting in the Oval Office when he wrote that description? I can smell the face bronzer from here.
Million dollar watch, folks! I know what I have, don't buy those horrible foreign versions! This one is sitting right here in the good ol' US of A!!!
Hope you get the therapy for the TDS when the economy is back on track. Wishing you the best.
