    I already own a Seamaster and love it ...

    However- it's 60th anniversary of the iconic Speedmaster. A watch steeped in horological history and also a beautiful watch that looks good on a variety of straps...

    So - I treated myself... Omega sure know how to package and present such a watch ... understated box, it isn't !

    I've ordered a handmade/stitched leather strap - but there's quite a waiting time;

    So in the meantime - I've put my JB NATO strap on it ;

    Very nice, wear it in good health. The presentation box, etc. is crazy.

    The watch is great... I'm surprised also how many people notice/recognise it .... "Nice Speedmaster".....or ..."Is that the moon watch?".....

    Seems to be a watch people take another look at

    Safety1st,

    That's a beautiful Speedy. It looks great with the SS bracelet and JB Nato.

    The Speedy is a great watch that will never go out of style. I used to own an Omega....

    That is my grail watch, I nearly bought one a few years ago, I had the cash in hand, and I got a phone call from my wife to tell me she was pregnant.
    The omega fund became the baby fund.
    I'll get one some day....
