Omega Speed Master

Recently been looking for a speed master and have come across this for £3000 for a 2012 model. It's the first omega I'd be purchasing. My only reservation is... Should I spend £500-£100 more for a newer one?

Is £3000 for this piece considered okay? If not what should I be paying?

Pictures attached.

Personally, I would spend a little extra and get a new one. It could need servicing in the near future since it's 8 years old and that would wipe out any savings from buying this older watch.

You should get some discount from the new piece. Also good to know that the current Speedmaster is about to be discontinued.

If you’re in the UK Dom Hackett (Hackett watches) can get you a brand new one with warranty and a good discount. Spend the extra and get that new 5 year warranty. An 8 year old speedy might well need a service.

Thanks fella. Yep I'm in the east Midlands... Do you know what sort of price I'm looking at?
