One of my favourite Speedmaster. Fully flight certified and with hesalite crystal.
My local AD has number 3322. I want it badly.

Quite like it, not over the top with the anniversary bit, like some past special commemorative models.But deep down in me, there is only one Omega speedy, and thats black dial.

Everything about it is beautiful except for the white hands on white dial camouflage.

The one I like has more of a cream face, like they had in the late 60s.

Nice watch! Go for it!!!
I have been trying to get a 35th Ed. to go with my 40th Ed. Speedmaster, so I would appreciate any pointer to an USA Omega AD that has one in stock. Thanks in advance. Here's a teaser picture

I like, BUT there is not enough contrast in the hands to the dial for my eyes.
Does anyone have the Omega Snoopy edition watch. I had a chance to get a BNIB a few years ago, but passed. Now I wish I would have picked it up.

I used to own this piece and it is stunning. be warned that many do flip it because of the lack of contrast between dial and hands which is an issue to some... it is a stunning piece and looks even better in the flesh.

Nice size case and overall very sharp.
But as others have said, I can't get of the hands.....just too hidden against the dial. |

Nice watch you have there,
I really like the speedmaster range, especially the white dial with date Broad Arrow pictured below. Not my photo.
