Perpetual Watch Lover (PWL)
Omega Speedmaster Professional Don Bezel 105.012-65 HF Pre moon cal. 321
A small step for... Going to not tell you the same story that you have read a million times on Speedies before. However I will tell you some fun and interesting facts of this particular watch that I have figured out while owning it.
This handwound beauty dates back to 1965, an era before men stepped foot on the moon. Housing a big case for his time yet very contemporary for us now. The twisted lugs make the watch play with the light like no other can. It is an icon with a reason.
Movementwise, this watch runs on the iconic cal 321 that omega recently revitalized in their catalogue, a 17 jewel column wheel monster of a movement. Beating away and keeping time like you expect a toolwatch to do.
This watch will be sold with a the extract of the Omega archives.
