Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 3520.53
Up for grabs is a great example of the Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 3520.53
The Mark 40 has been rediscovered over the past few years, due to the 'Hodinkee effect'. It's widely known as the inspiration for Ben Clymer's interest in watches, and the catalyst for the creation of Hodinkee, and subsequently Hodinkee's 10th anniversary homage to the Mark 40.
Regardless of the Hodinkee ties, the Mark 40 is a strong contender for future classic in it's own right. Featuring a 39mm case, triple calendar complication and pops of red, blue and yellow on the dial, it makes for an extremely wearable and fun watch on the wrist.
This particular example is in excellent condition. Lugs show marks from strap changes, and the rest of the case has some light marks from regular wear. External AR coating is fairly scratched as per usual - most people have this removed. Please see images for full details of condition.
Previous owner had it serviced in July 2019 by Prestige Watch Repairs in Sydney. Movement is running strongly at around -7 seconds per day, at 308 degrees of amplitude. Apparently serviced by the previous retailer not long ago, and have no reason to doubt this with the amplitude numbers.
Comes mounted on an Italian Colareb leather strap.
Watch only.
