That's all for now. I really didn't want cell phone pictures, but I don't have time for the real deal. That'll have to wait till I have time. But as you can see, this rough group has exerted its pressure resulting in at least an attempt.
Let me reply to some of the posts. For me, the watch is priceless and isn't for sale. This is one of those once-in-a-lifetime events that I lucked into. I don't have the information as to why there aren't any box or papers for these watches. The owner died and whoever sold the entire collections, may not have even known were the supporting information was, or may not have even been aware that such things were of value and probably existed. I am speculating here. The case and bracelet are indeed sharp. I mean that in a literal sense. Feeling the edges of the bracelet in particular are so sharp that the sensation is that they could cut skin. The edges on the case itself, even though sharp, don't give the tactile sensation of sharpness. It is a bit disappointing to post pictures since the watch in person is so much more impressive that it defies description. It gave me chill bumps to look at when I first saw it. I was struck by this strong sense that Omega had gone out of its way to build something special. You can see that in the details of the watch and the bracelet. The entire object exudes quality from its metallic pores. Omega succeeded in building something special for their first watch to celebrate years in business. I showed the watch to an avid Omega enthusiast who has many Omegas. All of his watches are as near to perfect as one could hope for. Before purchases, he researches each watch like you would expect from a diligent engineer (which he is). He saw this watch in person and was in disbelief as to what he was seeing. He said, and I quote: "This watch is beyond amazing." I showed the watch to someone who isn't really a watch type person. His response was one of awe. He said he had never seen a watch that he was impressed with until he saw this watch.
FTFY....there's a lot of debate about that claim, not to mention generally a lot of 125's on the market at any one time which also raises doubts about the supposed 2000 produced. Great watch OP!
I got my detail from the Omega site ,look it up as it clearly states 2000 pieces made .Unless of course Omega are incorrect with the number of 125s they made .
What, you don't read all the threads on OF? https://omegaforums.net/threads/176...-the-speedmaster-125-conspiracy-theory.38904/ Shame on you
Rick mentioned that Omega did not finish the back of the watch as well as the front. You can see this. There are some "defects" which appear as gouges in the metal. I find it to be an interesting aspect of the watch and the 1970s company culture.
