Omega - 1971 Speedmaster Professional

WHAT WE LOVE:

New Zealand in 1971, the final days of the Holyoake government, the year that saw the last scheduled steam train service, the year of the first Kentucky Fried Chicken on these shores. Also in that year, you were able to buy an Omega Speedmaster Professional for $175 in Lower Hutt, at your local Omega Dealer. A steep price to pay at the time, adjusted for inflation we are talking about roughly $3000 worth in today's currency, which seems like a relative bargain today.

This Omega Speedmaster, which presents in superb vintage condition was delivered to New Zealand in March 1971, as confirmed by the archive keeping department of Omega. A compelling watch for any vintage Omega collector, or anyone who might have also shared a production date similar to this model.
