Long Description:

This vintage Omega Speedmaster watch, model 145.022-69 dates to 1969 based on its model number and serial number of 29 million.

One look tells you this is a very clean example of this durable and collectible model, which was used primarily as a pilots tool watch. Overall the condition can be described as crisp given the very black colour and contrast of the bezel and the light patina of the original hands against the original black dial. Many of these watches have had the dial replaced due to fading or discoloration and now have the newer Luminova luminous dials, this watch however is still fitted with the original tritium marker dial. Collectors are now paying a premium for the tritium dials when in clean condition.

The original Omega bezel is in fantastic condition. The watch is fitted with a padded and ridged leather sports strap however a brand new full-sized genuine Omega 1171-1 bracelet can be supplied at an additional cost. This is the correct Omega bracelet for this model according to the Omega parts catalog.

The Omega calibre 861 movement was just serviced by my watchmaker and functions flawlessly. A new signed Omega crystal was replaced at that time. Please note the original Omega signed crown fitted to the watch.

The Omega Speedmaster became a legend for being the first watch worn on the moon and is flight qualified for every NASA manned space mission.

The watch measures 40mm wide by 47mm long.
