Stunning 1969 Omega Speedmaster Mk2 with Racing Dial and Omega Box

The Overview

We are working with a UK based collector who has asked us to market a selection of his watches. As part of the offer each watch has had a full service and refurbishment by the UK’s leading watchmaker, Steven Hale Watch Restoration. Each watch will come with a 2 year guarantee from Steve Hale and a lifetime guarantee on the authenticity by Sonning Vintage Watches.

This is an immaculate example of the iconic Omega Speedmaster from 1969. The chunky steel case is in pristine condition with only minor signs of wear. The original and very rare black/grey Omega signed dial is in excellent condition and looks stunning. The very high grade Omega signed 861 movement is again in excellent condition and has just been serviced by SHWR. The original Omega bracelet is again in excellent condition and a good size – please advise your wrist size when ordering. We also have a genuine Omega Seamaster box which is in overall good condition but the rear section is damaged.

The Case

The chunky steel case is in pristine condition with only minor signs of wear. The case measures 42mm across, excluding the Omega signed crown and 45mm long including the lugs. The outside caseback is signed ‘Speedmaster’ and the inside case is signed ‘Fab Suisse Swiss Made’, ‘Omega Watch Co’, ‘Acier Inooxyable’ and the reference ‘145.014’.

The Movement

The very high grade Omega signed 861 movement is again in excellent condition and has just been serviced by SHWR. The movement is signed ‘Omega Swiss’, ‘Seventeen 17 Jewels’ and the calibre is ‘861’. The movement number is ‘28089144’.

The Box, Papers and Sonning Warranty

As with the majority of pre-owned watches that are 10 years or older, this particular watch does not come with its original box or paperwork. The watch is 100% genuine and rest assured we provide a lifetime guarantee on the authenticity and provenance of all the watches we sell.

Although there is no original paperwork, we do provide a written invoice and 3 page insurance valuation with the pictures of the watch and all available reference numbers. We also give a 12 month warranty on all our watches. We also stock a good selection of vintage watch boxes to help complete your purchase.

The Conclusion

This is a beautiful example of a watch from one of horology’s most famous names and will, if history is any judge, provide an excellent financial investment as well as a possession to treasure and enjoy. I will provide an insurance valuation in excess of my asking price. Please appreciate the difficulty of photographing this piece, it looks even better in real life. Subject to your location I’ll happily show the watch.
