Reasons to bid

One of those Omega Speedmaster versions that can adorn an entire collection. The symmetrical Pre-Professional case is a sign of an era that ended with the advent of the asymmetrical Speedmaster Professional case. The matte black dial with a pleasant natural patina, the rare ‘Alpha’ hands (hour, minute and three counter hands) and, of course, the ‘lollipop’ seconds hand which adorns this watch make up the unique character of this chronograph, which houses the famous hand-wound caliber 321, the best movement ever created for the Speedmaster.
