Delivery & Returns
Q: What are the key details of this Omega Speedmaster? A: This is an Omega Speedmaster Ref. 145.0022 from circa 1970 with a 42 mm stainless steel case, stainless steel bracelet, black tachymetre bezel, and a manual-wind Cal. 861 chronograph movement. It is a vintage piece with a white OMEGA dial fitted to the watch.
Q: Is this watch automatic or manual-wind? A: It is a manual-wind watch powered by Omega’s Cal. 861 movement. That means it should be wound by hand rather than powered by wrist motion like an automatic watch.
Q: Is the dial original to the watch? A: No. According to the product information, this watch has a replaced white OMEGA dial. It also has replaced OMEGA hands, a replaced OMEGA case back, and a replaced OMEGA bracelet. The original dial and hands, as well as the original caseback, are included in the product information.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: The product information states that the watch comes with a box, original dial and hands, and the original caseback. If an accessory is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What condition is the watch in? A: The watch is listed in very good condition overall, with light traces of use. The external condition is noted as very good, the internal condition is very good, and the hardware is described as shiny with light scratches.
Q: Will it fit my wrist? A: The bracelet is listed as fitting a wrist of up to 21 cm. If your wrist is 21 cm or smaller, it should fit as currently configured.
Q: What is the tachymetre bezel used for? A: The tachymetre scale is designed to measure speed over a fixed distance. On a Speedmaster, it is one of the model’s most recognisable features and is part of the classic chronograph layout.
Q: Is this watch suitable for everyday wear? A: Many collectors do wear vintage Speedmasters regularly, and this example is in very good condition. That said, it is still a vintage watch, so sensible day-to-day care is recommended, especially around shocks, moisture, and rough use.
Q: Can I swim or shower with this watch? A: Although the reference has a historical water-resistance rating, we recommend treating vintage watches with caution around water unless they have been recently pressure-tested and cleared for such use by a qualified watchmaker. For most buyers, it is safest to avoid swimming or showering with a vintage chronograph.
Q: How often should a vintage manual-wind Speedmaster be serviced? A: Service needs depend on use and condition, but regular maintenance is important for a vintage mechanical watch. If you plan to wear it often, periodic inspection and servicing by a qualified watch specialist is a sensible part of ownership.
