Unpopular (but loved) Speedmasters - Show Them!

bama2141 · Apr 1, 2020

Over the course of 60+ years, Omega has produced a staggering number of Speedmaster models. Quite naturally the original Speedy, the moonwatch, is the most popular, and gets the large majority of the posts on this forum. That said, there are some other models that are more special tastes, odd, bizarre, or just less popular with the masses.

Let’s see them! Here are a couple to get started --

The Teutonic (145.0040)

The X-33 (The Mars Watch)

What other models do you have that need a little more exposure, a little more love?

That’s unpopular? 😕

I know boat loads of people that own/wear them...I figured it was popular. 👍

My opinion the Ratatouille Speedmaster

All about ones taste 😗

Picture curiosity of https://www.fratellowatches.com/speedy-tuesday-omega-speedmaster-pro-tintin/

Can't stand it, looks like the Ratatouille Speedmaster to me. The red and white look like a tablecloth or a poker chip. Dunno just me

Can't work it out same as multicoloured NATOs

( can I write NATO or does that guy on eBay own the word NATO now or still ? ! How would you pay this guy for everytime you wrote NATO ? )

Very Popular in my view, I have never bought one as I would probably not wear anything else if I did 😗

I’d say it needs exposure but any search tends to lead back to mine

Good idea for a thread, I'm looking forward to seeing what comes up!

This is relative to other moonwatches I guess, although I believe the 3594.50 (also known as the replica - man that's bad branding) has historically been a bit of a runt of the litter...

the Mk 40 never quite gets the love it deserves

Mk2 in Racing or Standard Dials aren’t that popular IMO.

Haven't seen any unpopular models so far... as You all posted great watches.
I was thinking the thicker Mark III and Mark III Big Blue are amongst the unpopular Speedmaster models 👎
