I have owned many Omega watches over the years from a 1916 Trench watch, through Dynamics, Deville's, Electronics etc.. to my current Ploprof & 200 Banana, but never a Speedy for whatever reason.
That has now changed with this & I am now wondering why the .... I have never had one before???

Mark.

Likewise but for me it’s a continuous journey , I’ve had several speedmasters , which led me to the next one etc etc ,& never really fully bonded with them , but the speedy Ultraman was a I’ve got to have one moment for me and it still feels special every time I wear it .

I love wearing my Speedies so much; sometimes I’ll go through the motions of setting the date, or setting the time on another watch to wear only to put my Speedy back on because I missed it. Congrats @spark on your new watch. It looks great, and I’m psyched you’re enjoying it!

I really do not know why you do not were a Speedmaster until now. 😀. In my opinion is the most iconic watch and looks very nice for over 65 years..

that's a beauty, is it a 145.022-69?
what's the backstory? where'd you find it?

I wish I never let my Ultraman go. I was smug at the time about my £1k profit but much less so now they have shot up in value.
