FS: OMEGA HOLY GRAIL Speedmaster Day Date 3760822 FULL SET

MADDOX "HOLY" GRAIL

aka

Omega Speedmaster Day Date Ref. 376.0822 circa 1987

Timepiece set is located in GERMANY; 130 Km from Frankfurt and 80 Km from Stuttgart Airports - all interested parties are invited to view, vibograph, examine etc

Timepiece is in minty condition (as obvious from pictures), never polished, original factory minty condition case and bracelet: 1450 bracelet and 809 end pieces (little to no stretch whatsoever).

Timepiece was completely serviced 5 or so years ago at an Omega service center, and spares were returned (which will be shipped along with timepiece).

Timepiece was worn a handful of times total since new, runs absolutely PERFEKT; as is to be expected of a rarely worn Omega chronograph with recent Omega service center complete overhaul.

A true, solid, no-issue legendary and highly collectable automatic chronograph with reportedly as few as 800 and up to 1500 produced worldwide, and for that singular year: 1987 ONLY.

Rare chronograph was made via a combination of the iconic SPEEDMASTER moon case with bullet-proof Lemania 5100 (Omega cal. 1045) auto-chrono -- all Omega signed and original. The story behind this rare configuration, is that Omega put together remaining stock of moon cases with remaining 5100/1045 automatic chronograph for a clearing of sitting stock in 1987!

This timepiece picked up the name: Holy Grail, from our late great fellow collector: Chuck Maddox, and documented his hunt for a viable example (on this very site), I recommend doing the research, it will justify your search, investment price, and complete rarity of locating a FULL SET, and never-mind a serviced example!

Timepiece has the original English language date wheel, original Tritium dial (etc) and...

Box set includes:

-original box in mint condition
-original owners manual (not reprint, original)
-original warranty booklet
-original cushion
-original Omega service red zipper case

Asking price for this complete box set + minty Grail Speedy + Omega serviced history =

8500 euro shipped express complimentary worldwide.

A few photos, please excuse the quality, the watch is remarkable "in the metal" on the wrist... Remarkable.
