FS: Omega Speedmaster Professional X-33 / Gen 2 (3291.50) Set

Set comes with watch, outer/inner box, warranty cards, instruction manual and cleaning cloth.

The X-33 has a rich history. Designed with space travel in mind, Nasa was closely consulted all the way down the line with this one! Used by many astronauts even today - check out Chris Hadfield's wrist watch video (currently on the ISS) - this is indeed the same model he has on in space right now.

Highly recommend looking into its development if you enjoy a good read, as it is fascinating.

This particular one is still beautiful. As you can see from the pictures, it has extremely light wear on the surface AR coating, but do note these sapphires come with both inner and outer coating so if it bothers you a lot you can get rid of the top layer without effecting performance significantly. Honestly speaking though, looking at it on the wrist you can't tell and I hope that is clear from the pictures.

It is very clean and looks almost new. The titanium bracelet is also in fantastic shape, and was not used while this watch was worn.

Storage box still looks great. Spare links are also included.

They don't make these anymore except in military circles so, these watches very rarely hit the consumer market these days. Asking price for this one is $3000 which includes Paypal fees and insured shipping worldwide.

Please contact me for references - I have strong reputation at a number of sites and am happy to prove my identity.

Thanks for reading.
