    Hi all,

    I posted a while back about buying a Speedmaster and it being too small. To counter act that I bought a cheaper watch the same dimensions and have worn it for numerous months and enjoyed the smaller size on my wrist.

    So, back to Omega, back on with Speedmaster and viola, I now having the craving again.

    After missing out on a few older pieces I have stumbled upon an unworn 345.0022, however there is no original box or papers, but it does come with a Omega soft case.

    Is the lack of original packagaing and papers something to worry about, I have researched the seller online and they appear to be a legit Europeon outfit. The price is, I think very good, just after another opinion.

    Best.

    These non limited edition pieces that are going to be worn, never have box and papers. Most members here would not think twice about missing box and papers on this piece. It will never be special collected sub reference. Not that anything is wrong with it. Just standard production pieces are common. And for any future value bump from box and papers it would need to be unworn also.

    They are the images attached to the listing, so may assumption would be to leave well alone?

    Exactly what I am after, just a standard Speedy.

    I would. These are pictures of a modern speedmaster so there is something wrong for sure unless they posted the wrong pictures.

    I said this in another thread but I bought mine brand new for less (grey market w/no warranty) but I walked away with the full suitcase, straps ect....... if that's the best price you can find and you're happy with what's included then go for it.

    Side note, I liked the last one you posted because of the bracelet that was included. Not sure what the price was in that one

    looks more like a 145.022, which is pretty much just a case code for modern Speedies

    If you could PM details, be very much appreciated.

    Regarding the other, missed it by an U-Bahn ride (2990 EUR) however when I do find the right one first purchase will be a 1171, Hirsch Lucca and an 18mm Omega buckle.
