Watches

Antiques-Roadshow-Omega-Speedmaster1.png

Him that turned up with the Omega Speedmaster 'ultraman' with the red seconds hand. £30-40k. Like Whoa!
 
Really? That’s so cool. Good looking watch. Still looks modern.

Deserves a nod in the getting old thread, antiques roadshow is the only place on tv with people older than me now.
 

I see some resemblances (after, it's hard to deviate from the "look" of a dive watch) but the hands, bezel width, date-window location, and lack of helium escape valve are all pretty different.

It's definitely the bezel, and the font on the bezel mate - the wavy lines on the face are reminiscent of the older PO too

Nice one thanks mate.
 
Must have swiped the last one, now out of stock....they were close to/over $500 when released a year ago. One of the few models from Seiko, under that pricepoint, that comes with a sapphire crystal. Have a feeling it's going to be a primary...has everything I look for, applied markers, drilled lugs, screw-down crown, 200 WR, colour-matched date wheel, gilt on black...yum.

Seiya's quick, so should have by the end of next week. Said I'd stop...another wagon accident has occurred, I'm afraid.

This thread is clearly a wagon-accident enabling thread. I encourage your reckless behavior!
 

Good friend here in Gaborone is also a keen watch enthusiast and has family in Switzerland going every day to the swatch shop .. he now has plans to get very moonswatch planet..

Point of the story is after about 3 weeks going every morning his old man has landed my choice, the Earth Swatch…have no idea how long it will take to get to me but pretty excited he got his hands on it! Now googling straps to stick a nato strap on it
