Are these Speedmasters the same?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I want to buy an Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch.

 

I have been looking at two listings, one on Timeshops and one on Watch-international. Basically I want to know why the case diameters are different on these two? Are they different or have the two dealers just used different measurements? I read about some discrepancies in the sizes quoted for this watch, hence me asking.

 

Mary's Speedmaster

 

Timeshops Speedmaster

 

Also, is it possible to get domed plexi glass in a rep out of the box?

 

Cheers,

 

Tommy

I'd imagine they're more than likely the same watch. Factual inaccuracies frequently crop up on dealers website listings. Probably best to email Mary and enquire.

As for the domed crystal, AFAIK the answer to that question sadly is no.

Domed plexi will have to be an after-jobbie :D

Who does the domed plexi and how much does it cost? Is it worth the extra time and expense in your opinion?

That watch press you won might be about to become very handy Kenny. If it does fit it could be a very busy little sideline for you.

There's really only one version of this out there I think ( besides the quartz) It's about 40mm. Not a great rep- but OK.

 

I got this from the dearly departed Lay

yeah I hear the accuracy isn't great. Does it run well/feel good etc?

Hmm. I'm having second thoughts. What would people recommend - The speedmaster pro moonie, Speedmaster Date, Broadarrow, or a Tag Heuer Calibre 16?

 

Cheers.

If you are concerned about accuracy go for Tag Calibre 16. Probably the safest choice. ;)
