I think speedies cost relatively more for servicing, and that's holding me back in getting preowned with w/o proper servicing history. Likewise for Swiss auto chronos...
2.6k for a '99 watch seems a little steep actually :oops: '99 means a 1861 right? I'm out of touch with brand new Speedy Pro pricing - don't they go for about S$4k?
this watch on sale for 2.6k but think will sell only if he accept offers...say early 2k would be a good price(if its good cond with fullset accessories) for a older 1861 piece. Cos knw that 2k can secure nice condition riao if you are lucky. 2.6k can buy good condition vintage 861 riao.. (most impt must knw wat u looking for in a speedy to your collection)

Indo WIS are into vintage speedy lately for no reason I can point out, so looking for a vintage speedy in indo is not a good idea for now, price wise, just like looking for a vintage bullheads in sg :)

Trying my luck in sg forums :D

You know what the deal about post-moon and pre-moon right. The watches that first went to the moon were pre-moon.

Knew a things or two about pre and post moon watch but not into details.... :oops: :oops:

I think the snoopy eyes on the stars logo at the backcase of these snoopy speedy is applied (sorta like a sticker kind thing).. That's what stopping me from getting one, and the price of course :p

Besides the speedies mentioned, anyone can spare some thoughts on the mark series iii. Iv or iv? The mark iii got very nice case like helmut.

bro,IMHO really depends on which variants u comfortable and aim to buy riao since there are so many speedy variants other than iconic moon watches(pre moon,post moon n moon)..

mark II,III,IV,mark 4.5 and 125 anniversary.

mark II begin 861 manual winding and rest of the above using auto omega calibre(obviously lemania based). these movt are all well made else they wouldnt have survived well thru the decades...so the question would be personal movt preference,design outlook and also what sub registers are on the dial....some bro may like 24hr sub register...some dont... some die die must have 60secs sweep at sub dial...some prefer
cleaner second sweep hands.rather than mixed of 24hr and sec hands register.

I like the use of white to black on dial in speedy hence I traded my orange exotic dial mark II with the black one.

next should be a 125 anniversary cos of the case design where you can remove the whole case module from bracelet and case holder...

mark 4 and 4.5 have obvious different dial design...I like 4.5 (1045) for its seconds sweep sub register than a mark 4...

mark 3 has the most variants of case designs...

-TV case
-Helmet
-flatter normal type


and as we see,helmet ones cost more and sought after than common TV case.

Recently came across a local retailer selling a mint mark 4.5 for about $2.6k. Reasonable?

mint for such vintage omega from 70's? if its really all authentic and unrestored,then its worth it... as its as really rare to find a mint one as in untouched ,not refinish.... most mint ones have been refinish done to case(rebrush,polish) and dial might be newly replaced ....better research more before u pull the trigger.
