Ah yes! I also have this reference. A keeper for me as well, it was the watch my wife gave me when we got married. Specs wise it's a killer deal. Coaxial, automatic, date complication. It's really got all a man needs for every day forever.

The racing speedmaster does so much for the price point at 44% off in 2023. Date window 40mm (really 38) Grey dial/yellow (Batman) Great bracelet Great rubber alternative Column wheel Easy adjust date Your reviews helped me get the watch, thank you for this sleeper!

Apart from your Meistersinger, all of your watches have struck a chord with me and that is saying something. We have exquisite taste... but seriously congrats on a real beauty.

I'm with you on rotor wobble! I have it with a few Miyota movements and it makes me smile. It's fun!

It reminds me the Speedsmaster Schumacher, but modern. Nice chronograph!!!

Congratulations on this great purchase, Peter! One of the most beautiful versions of the Speedmaster. This could easily be my grailwatch.

Massive congratulations. I think that's the best looking Speedy I've seen. Pandas abound, but that red....wow. Love the wobblers as well, and have many in my collection. It's a happy tactile interaction for a living timepiece. What a great find. Enjoy it! 👍👍👍

Good to hear about the Chrono24 experience. Good to see your "itch" was "scratched." Good vid. Keep at it!

Never seen that exact colour combination on a speedy before. What a beauty! Congrats!

I have bought and sold various watches from Rolex to Breitling. All so far have been a great pleasure to seek out watches. As for buying the watch again due to the fact of making a mistake to get rid of it, yes 👍 for sure it’s more of a keeper which will be fought over when passing on in life. So leave a detailed will. 🌹

I had the opportunity to buy one of these a few years ago. It was the charcoal-colored dial variant with red accents on the bracelet. It was in a store in Narita, Japan, from which I had purchased another watch previously and was immaculate. Had the box and papers and was like new. I remember agonizing over that choice because I thought 40mm was just a bit too small for my wrist. But it did look good and I appreciated its design just like you. In retrospect I should have jumped at the chance to add it to my collection and will remember that hopefully so as not to make the same mistake again. Enjoy and thanks for sharing!

I had not bought an omega in probably 20 years and recently grabbed a seamaster and Omega is def great quality

Cool choice. I’m really not a fan of chronographs, but I’ve owned a Speedmaster before. It was fun, just never really connected with it though. But I do like that version. Great choice. Thanks for sharing.

That is a sweet piece! I agree that there is nothing negative to me about rotor wobble. It reminds me that I am wearing a watch with a 'heartbeat'.

I've never seen that color Omega, its amazing!

Nice speedy very unique not the typical Moon watch variant. That column wheel makes such a difference with the chronograph function. That strap really brings out the spirit of that particular model.

Ah, that's a beautiful watch, Peter! And the walk-thru on the Chrono24 private seller experience was interesting. Congrats on the purchase and enjoy it, great edition!

That's a great watch. It's nice to see some bold new color combinations being tried in tasteful ways like this. 🙌

I'm with you on the rota wobble. My Citizen diver (right on the other end of the buying scale :) has it and I always like it when it starts whirring away. Fair play to you taking the risk on buying it unknown. Looks like it's played out though, It's a gorgeous looking watch. Thanks for the review.

Great to see you keeping true to your style, you always bring something interesting to enjoy. It’s really testament to the depth or your experience, and the strength of this particular online platform, that you found success in the pre-owned market without the face-to-face transaction. Complete 180 from the previous pre-owned Omega experience you shared.

The surface texture of the dial in the sunlight is amazing. Congrats!

That's a lovely bold red.

Cool, congrats 😎 Got my first Omega in the post, SM300m....really excited!!

Peter I’ve bought several watches through Chrono24, including a beautiful WW2 era vintage Rolex. I found it a safe way to purchase especially via Escrow! I would not hesitate again if I find what I’m after!

Great vid Peter. That's a real beauty! Would not of thought of a red dial like that, but you've opened my eyes....really like it!

I love fun lively watches. That speedy’s surely one. Enjoy

It's a gorgeous piece Peter! So nice to see it in red for a change as well. Congratulations!

I discovered this watch through your previous vid and I agree, the only main ding is the legibility, but with this red variant and the blue (which I have my eye on) the legibility is fantastic. This really is a close to perfect Chrono. Fantastic vid! 😎👍🏼

Blimey glad I'm not the only one splashing out this week. Love the speedy Peter, although I prefer the original black / white colourway. This is the first time I've seen it in red, looks great on that suede strap. Just got my sla 043 today and I'm smitten. Like you I purchased it 2nd hand via eBay, but eBay are now offering a athentuacy guarantee on any watch over 2k.basically the seller sends it to be checked and if it's gen, they then post it to the buyer. To be honest never have had a problem buying 2nd hand goods off eBay, but then I have been doing it for over 17 years. I don't know if you seen any sla 62mas models in the flesh Peter, but the size would be right up your alley. Got it for an amazing price considering it was only purchased in June this year. May need to get a bigger watch box now though, lol.

A real beauty. I love the tall and narrow date (text) complication too.

I got this model after seeing your reverse panda video! I love the colour and the legability. Purchased through Chrono 24 as well, ticked all the boxes. Keep up the good work.

Great technical re-buy or buy back. I have no issues with rotor wobble. I can enjoy a watch with our without it just fine. And, if a watch has a display back, I enjoy watching that seemingly endless spin. It's quite an entertaining dynamic spectacle as bidirectional rotors tend to be stiff and static once fully wound... Which is fine too. Just saying it's yet a different allergy to equally enjoy between the wobblers and wobbleless. The color and details are great on this one. I can appreciate getting an atypical model from a popular watch model line. The road less traveled can often be the more interesting one.

Great purchase. Superb red colour 👌. The texture on the sub dials is a great design touch. Definitely a summer watch on that rubber strap. Thanks for sharing. Not seen this model before.

Great choice for Speedmaster timepieces! Thanks Peter for the review!

I just got mine, and it is incredible, combining with uncle Seiko bracelet makes it much better. Thanks for your review.

Chrono 24 is great. Have used it.

Love the color, like that it's fairly unique. Glad the deal went well.

Im totally onboard with the rotor wobble, wearing my Guinand GMT 😉👍 Love this Omega 👍

Thanks for sharing Peter. I LUV this variant, especially the red and textures for both (sub & main) dials… I wore my wobbly 2006 blue dial triple calendar for Speedy Tuesday this week, constantly looking down with the sensation. Having bought the safe colour choice back then, I have matured to ‘fun level’ red now, and will continue the search via your links. (Was on N.Hacko SYD this week checking selection) Cheers👍🏻

It's beautiful and it's an Omega. You made a good choice!

Cool watch, nice color.

Absolute beauty. The sinn 556 i m and this wow both incredible pieces you sir are building an exquisite collection. Cheers

It is an amazing model. I have just received my racing model in black on blue and love it

That is a beautiful watch

Thanks Pete - stunning colour combo with the strap ! Lot of design finesse here inc the texture on sub dials and strap. Right up there on my Wishlist . Bloody Beautiful! Cheers 👌

Awesome man! Never seen an Omega in this colour. Very nice 👍

Hi Peter. I bought the white dial version of the same model a couple of months back.. after I saw your older video for the reverse panda variant. Thanks for helping me make the call.. cheers!

If the watch does not have a screw-in crown, I do not touch the water, no matter what the dial or case back says. Nice watch!.

I don’t think I could buy a red watch, but that watch is beautiful. That dial texture is amazing in your outdoor shots.

The Red looks more bordeaux/darker here than most products shots that I've seen so far! Looks even better in your presentation. Great purchase! Love some good wobble-wind, too! P.S. I appreciate your message towards "older models". I personally do not get why one would limit themselves to only those models that are currently found in an AD's window. There are so many gems out there!

I never got it when people were complaining about rotor wobble, for instance on a watch with a Miyota 9 series movement, its a non issue for me. Congrats for the good purchase and the new gorgeous watch Pete!

It's beautiful! This is my first time seeing this color way and I love it but I'm a little apprehensive in case I start disliking it over time. I've wanted a Speedy Pro for a long time(or so I thought) but I noticed that I was purchasing other pieces instead of the Speedy. I realized that I didn't love the Speedy Pro, rather I loved it's history and what others had to say about it. In all honesty, in the back of my mind the Speedy Pro was a bit bland and too busy looking for my tastes. I then realized that what I really wanted was a Speedy Racing for it's automatic movement, 40mm case and mostly all the contrast in dial variations. Right now I'm between the black dial, reverse panda and now this beautiful red dial! I mostly prefer bracelets so I think the red dial doesn't look as good on the bracelet. Looks great on the rubber and leather NATO though! Tough choice.

I had a nice trip down in Melbourne long years ago, where we went to wineries in a convertible merc from 80s. This watch would be perfect for this sort of thing. Well done mate. Enjoy it.

Very nice timepiece and excellent video as always. Thanks, Peter. Congrats on your purchase. I love the Omega in rose gold and tantalum, with NO complications. Oh, anOrdain has some beautiful dials.

Ho bro, just bought the same watch but in black as like the black which is more closer to the iconic watch. Loving it.

Rotor wobble FTW! I love it too. That and the workhorse reliability of the Valjoux 77xx series.

OOOHHHH THAT COLOUR!!! Amazing. Such a beautiful speedy, I hadn't seen the red variant before and now you've fired up the ol "It will be mine" vibe in my brain. I've been contemplating the Tudor BB Chrono as my next purchase but....on can never tell.

That's a gorgeous watch, Peter, I love the color way and design as well. Have fun enjoying your new favorite timepiece.

That is a beautiful watch, and one that doesn't get enough attention compared to the moonwatch.

I have the blue dial. Love it! But yes, that tiny crown is beyond annoying!

Enjoy listening the features that you like from your perspective. The colour and the date position are really something. Congratulation.

Great review. I'm seriously considering one of these, in particular, the one with the grey/yellow colorway. The red one you have chosen looks fantastic and I'm happy you showcased it here because I can get a much better feel for how it looks, rather than stock pictures. Very helpful point on the servicing benefits of this movement. Definitely a plus. Cheers!

Congratulations on the new watch. That's a beauty! Love the red dial.

You are on a tear lately! Picking up some absolute belters! 👍👍

Beautiful beautiful beautiful watch. Love the alternate red. I am with you in that the primary function of a watch revolves around legibility. Without that- it’s close to worthless. I have the Heuer Autavia with the “hidden” date and yes it’s very nice. Just anted up and bought the Globemaster Annual Calendar. And I’m loving it but then, I was born in the 1950s and it feels right at home.

That’s a real beauty! Congratulations Peter.

I have a watch with a 7750 movement. I love the rotor wobble 👍

Congratulations on your new purchase Peter! That’s a stunning watch! My overall experience with Chrono 24 was good, however during international shipping, I did encounter some delays.

Hidden gem indeed, I love it. My Breitling Old Navitimer has the rotor wobble too. You never forget it’s there that’s for sure!

Yep, I like wobble too. And a bit of noise. Reminds you something is going on in there 😝

Beautiful piece Peter! Very cool! Congratulations!

Congratulation for the great acquisition, that's a stunning watch

Wow thats stunning, great choice and review mate 👍

Snagged the speedy pro earlier this year and decided to sell this watch to help fund a grand seiko since I couldn’t justify owning both but kind of regretting it because it really did wear nicely. Also was my most accurate auto watch gaining less the a second per day. Maybe I’ll get another one in future!

Beautiful watch Peter you've bought well. It would look really good on a high quality black sailcloth with red stitching. Enjoy.

What a stunning watch…… absolutely fantastic…. Another hit Peter. Congrats.

Beautiful red.

Congratulations Peter for your Omega!!! Very beautiful watch. Enjoy it brother.....

Absolutely beautiful piece.

What a beautiful model.

Congratulations!!! I bought my reverse panda speedy racing looking at your video. Such a value for money watch

Beautiful watch! Congratulations With you on the rotor wobble as well.

I’d say you traded up Peter: 10/10. This Speedmaster could make most any wish list. Really love it. Ya Good to see you be rewarded for adding a stunning color dial having been more “safe” initially.

Brilliant watch, great choice. Congratulations

What a beautiful dial, love the red Peter!🤩

Love mine on the rubber.Superb watch❤

Congratulations 👏🥳

Stunning Peter, great video!

Matches your logo! Nice!

Great purchase! I really like the red as it is different.

Colour coded beautifully. Well done. Thnx for video

Awesome watch, good buy. Buying this watch is a clear reflection you buy watches and not hype. Congratulations!!!

Absolutely beautiful watch Peter, love the red dial. Enjoy. 👌

HOLY SHITTAKE MUSHROOMS, she's GLORIOUS! … now I want one! Brilliant video! Thank you.👊🏼

Imho Classiest speedy I have ever seen - awesome.

Gorgeous watch! Watching your videos could get expensive for me.

Nice Omega model. Appreciate the review!

Love that red. Lucky man.

Bought one today from Chrono 24 for my sons 21st. Grey dial, rubber strap. wish it was mine. I was not sure about the online purchase but seems there is plenty of protection there. time will tell. Also, no local Omega dealers here for me.

Absolutely stunning mate congrats!!!
