My New Speedmaster Date

Here are a few quick and dirty shots of my new Speedy Date that I picked up last weekend. I just couldn't pass up the phenomenal deal at the AD. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have a personal contact there.

Anyway, I am really enjoying this one. Here she is!



















Cheers!

Great photos and nice watch. The dial looks quite clear and easy to read for a chronograph. Good luck with it! Omega is always an excellent choice.

If I wasn't into vintage speedys, that one would definitely be on my top 3 list Omega.

Talking about Speedy's... I saw a Speedmaster Professional last night, new at an AD for around USD2600.00 after a 20% discount. Good deal??
