Short Description:
Vintage Omega Speedmaster Professional with calibre 861 movement.

Long Description:

A vintage Omega Speedmaster watch, model 145.022-71.

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. Collectors are now paying a premium for the tritium dials when in clean condition.

The original bezel appears to be still fitted to the watch as it has some fading to the paint
But you will note the larger text of the tachometric scale. The watch is fitted with a brand new genuine Omega 1171-1 bracelet, which is the correct Omega bracelet for this model according to the Omega catalogue.

The Omega calibre 861 movement was just serviced by my watchmaker and functions flawlessly.

The watch dates to 1971 based on the case model number and the movement serial number in the 32 million range, right after the Apollo 11 mission where it became a legend for being the first watch worn on the moon. 

The watch measures 40mm wide by 47mm long.
