3… 2… 1… Liftoff!
Take a poll amongst wristwatch collectors, and we'd bet the consensus would be that there’s no timepiece more important or iconic than an Omega Speedmaster.
Sure, chronographs such as the Rolex Daytona or the Heuer Carrera are classics — icons even — but neither can match the stature of the Speedy with regards to historical importance. In fact, arguably, no watch can.
This particular Speedmaster, a Reference 3594.50 dates to circa 1999 and offers something a bit different — namely, a ‘broad arrow’ handset inspired by those of the earliest Speedmasters. Housed in a 42mm, twisted-lug stainless steel case with barrel pushers, a signed crown, a Hesalite crystal, and a steel tachymeter bezel, it features a luminous matte black dial with a matching ‘broad arrow’ handset and a triple-register chronograph layout. Powered by the Omega Caliber 1861 hand-wound movement, it comes paired to a solid, oval-link bracelet with a signed blade clasp.
If you’re in need of a Speedy that is offers something slightly different than the classic 'Professional,' this 'Broad Arrow' might just be the answer!
