Description: Omega Speedmaster 145.022
Pre-owned Omega Speedmaster ref 145.022 (circa 1973). This edition of the vintage Speedy Pro was produced between the 1960s and 1980s, during which the brand released many iterations. For that exact reason, it can be a very rewarding watch to collect and hunt for on the secondary market. Furthermore, ref. 145.022 is often positioned as an affordable vintage model and an excellent gateway into Omega Moonwatch ownership.
We have a fascinating edition of the series for sale here circa 1973. The caliber 861 (the successor to the celebrated caliber 321) is hard at work inside the case, beating at a higher frequency of 21,600 bph. This reference is the first in the 145.022 line to move to the flat dial rather than the older-style step dial. It also has the case back engraved with the distinctions "FLIGHT QUALIFIED BY NASA FOR ALL MANNED SPACE MISSIONS" and "THE FIRST WATCH WORN ON THE MOON" surrounding the Speedmaster medallion in curved text; something Omega still does today with the current Moon watch. This watch is an outstanding find for anyone searching for an affordable gateway to vintage Omega Moon Watch ownership.
