Finished Speedy 861 Premoon ! Thank God !
Hello, just as the flightmaster i was also restoring a speedy 861 premoon and i could not be more happy with the results.
The patina on the dial is so beautiful, now i cant stop looking at it. This build was done with all NOS parts, except for the dial. That was a true find and could not be more in love with it. Please let me know your opinion. God bless Enjoy !   Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Forgot to ask, the rear cover should have the first watch on the moon logo am I right? Never seen one like yours has. Beautiful watch though! :) Al

Thank you, since this is considered pre moon, it has not the nasa engraving in the back case. After the moon omega started putting the legend "approved for all man missions etc etc" and sales just rocketed ! But all pre moons have a case back just like mine. Thank you!!!!
