Omega Speedmaster CK2998-2

Omega Speedmaster CK2998-2

Our tour for today starts at CarsAndWatches, The Netherlands, who has this STUNNING CK2998-2 listed on his website. Yes, we noted it: it’s already sold.. But we simply could not resist sharing this beauty! One might note the wonderful lollipop seconds counter, the base 1000 inlay and the 7077 bracelet.. Although already sold, it’s worth a click!

From The Netherlands to Italy, where Stefano Mazzariol of VintageWatches.it offers this cool Omega Speedmaster Professional ST105.012 made in 1966. The worn-down inlay and vintage style leather strap make for a great look.. and of course the caliber 321 doesn’t hurt either!

Listed is the great Speedmaster Professional Italia, a limited edition of 500 pieces first introduced in 1997. The albino dial gives this Speedmaster a very unique look.. we love it!

The Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, reference 311.92.44.51.01.003, is without a doubt one of BaselWorld 2013’s biggest hits – and admittedly, one of our favourite automatic Speedmasters.

As little-to-none of you have probably been fortunate enough to get the call from your preferred AD, we thought a recap of articles, review and other posts from around the web would ease the wait a bit.. So sit back and enjoy!

Humble as we are, we’ll kick off with a few posts on our very own website;
