Omega Speedmaster TV Day Date Automatic 176.0014 - w/ Box and Papers
Omega Speedmaster TV Day Date Automatic 176.0014
Gee, Omega were really on a roll in the 70's, weren't they? Some of their coolest designs came from this era, and amongst them is this, known as the Speedmaster TV Dial.
The dial is a beautiful deep blue dial with a sunray finish, and is in magnificent condition. Tritium plots show some degradation under UV light, but all full. All light up and drop off at the same rate under UV. Light discoloration around the edges of the sub-dials under a loupe, and a spec of dust beneath the day window. Hands appear original and are tritium, and again light up and drop off at the same rate. Show discoloration which is typical of this era of tritium hands on Speedys.
The case is in superb condition, with excellent finishes throughout. Shows some small dings and scratches, but underwent an overhaul at Omega in 2021 so is in far nicer condition than you'd typically see these in. Glass shows some minor chipping around its outer edges, and some small scratches.
It’s powered by a variation on the Lemania 5100, known as the Cal.1045, so automatic winding, day (Spanish), date, 24 hour indicator, central chrono seconds and hour hands, and 12 hour counter complications.
The bracelet is a Bar Link 1204/212 and again is in superb condition. Extremely tight, and minimal marks. Contains 14 links, and will suit a wrist up to about an 8 inch wrist.
As above, was mechanically overhauled by Omega in 2021 and all functions operating as they should and keeping COSC time.
Comes with outer box, inner box, original papers, service receipt and Watch Vault cleaning cloth.
This is a rare watch in this condition, and with box and papers it's almost unheard of. Don't sleep on this one, another in this condition, serviced, and with these accessories may not pop up for a while...this is as good as it gets.
