Links to online auctions and other sites: Links to online auctions, dealer sites or other listings of items are permitted, but you should be careful to ensure that such listings will comply with our other ChronoTrader Policies. In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family").

FS: Omega Speedmaster ref. 2998-62 w/ Beautiful Tropical Dial

Offered for sale is a stunning and all original example of the iconic ref. 2998-62 Omega Speedmaster with a cal. 321 movement (1983xxxx Serial #) in great condition. This watch was purchased from its original owner who wore and enjoyed it almost everyday since purchasing it new.

Details:

Dial: The original stepped applied logo step dial is in good condition and has turned to a stunning tropical brown color. The hue of the dial visually changes depending on lighting conditions. Two additional photos taken from a camera phone under direct sunlight are provided in the photo gallery to show the appearance of the dial under the sun. The original lume appears to have melted onto the dial as the original owner lived and worked in a hot climate throughout his ownership, adding a bit of uniqueness and character to the watch. The dial and lume plots are 100% untouched.

Case: Stainless steel straight lug case is in good condition with normal scratches from use. Crystal is in good condition with a few light surface scratches. Original BASE500 bezel with DO90 has faded to a beautiful gray hue complimenting the overall vintage character of the watch.

Bracelet: The watch comes fitted with an original steel 7912 bracelet in good condition with 23 links.

Additional: The watch currently runs well but service history is unknown. No other accessories are included with the watch.

Asking $28,450 by wire (or check deposited to my account) shipped and insured within the US or face to face in the Los Angeles area. International shipping available at an additional cost.

Returns only accepted within 3 days of receipt if item is not as described and is returned in the same exact condition as it was originally sold. Refunds will be considered upon a full inspection and will amount to the purchase price minus shipping and handling costs. Buyer is responsible for the return postage, insurance, and safe delivery of the watch back to me. Due to the complexity of shipping to the US from abroad, all international sales are final.

Worldwide references can be provided upon request. I am an independent watch collector and I am not affiliated with any brand in any way.

Feel free to send me an email at [email]kevin@uberz.net[/email] or call/text with any questions (626) 404-8842. International buyers can message me on What’s App at the same phone number (+1 country code).

Thanks,

Kevin Acuna
