I have zero gold watches, but something about this reference just calls to me. What a sweet combo that green and gold make, just stunning.

For me, it’s the moonshine gold Speedmaster with green dial. What a badass watch.

It’s absolutely awesome on the wrist. Never thought I’d want a yellow gold watch but after having the chance to try it on, I would definitely consider it if I had the funds to make it work.

Found this Japanese Racing Dial last year, took many years to track down

Then found a 105.022-69 straight writing which hit all the spots and check boxes without breaking the bank on a 105.012. It's got the patina, early 861 movement, beautiful stepped dial in wonderful condition, made right at the height of the Space Race. Paired it with a Foerstner Komfit band which I highly recommend. It's like a metal nato strap, and perfect vintage feel.

Very nice and welcome!

Canopus Gold Speedy. Insanely expensive - but - just perfect.

Absolutely no idea what this is worth because it's existence is borderline fairy-tale at this point but it's my grail.

I think it's around £120,000 or such and there's only about 50 of them that exist. Most likely all purchased already at this point by celebrities and oil barons.

Never heard of this model. Do you know the reference number?

I'm not sure of the reference numbers sorry - they aren't even listed in the Omega catalogue and as far as I know are offered to only some of the highest spending customers at Omega boutiques.

This article has more information about them and there's 5 different ones in total that were released in 2022.

Someone on the forum has one. There a thread about a birthday present I think (or maybe anniversary), and there's a picture of it in their collection

My grail is always the one I haven't bought yet, but I have my eye on you!

Stunning watch. Remember seeing this on another thread. Don't think I'd ever be brave enough to wear it out anywhere though, although guess if you can afford the watch you can also afford the insurance!

Trying not to think of a grail watch. Already purchased far too many in the last couple of years.

New member here from Toronto. I own the sapphire sandwich 3861 moonwatch that was my grail dince long before I owned it. My next watch that I want to own is this one.


I was close to getting one, but a family priority came up. Waiting for another opportunity to score one.

Recently became a 'senior' and considering one last watch to celebrate the occasion. Narrowed it down to one of these.....can't decide.

I wouldn't refuse if someone presented me a platinum 321 😉

Yeah, ok, I'd take that too if it were gifted!!
