Omega Speedmaster
The watch that has launched so many vintage collections! It was the inspiration for the founder of Chronopedia. This is his very watch shown right - a 1969 Speedmaster Professional with stepped tritium dial and Cal 861 manual wind movement, owned and worn for many years. Its been on his wrist a long time - at the birth of his daughter, his marriage, and every other significant moment in between. Simple, functional, useable, an everyday classic and still attainable brand new from Omega (in a slightly changed format). Everything you want from a watch, in one small beautiful package.
Every serious watch collector wants a Speedy Pro, and the choice and variety since it was first launched in 1957 is astonishing. The history of the Moon Watch is almost mythic...but here it is.
