Re: What's a nice vintage manual wind no date Omeg

Ted,

The Speedmaster Professional MArk II fits your criteria, with the exception of the white dial. It is a manual wind, caliber 861, stainless case and bracelet. They fairly common (relative to other vintage Speedmasters) and they can be had for a reasonable price. Mine is pictured below and I purchased it for $640.00USD. The watch was compete, running and original. I spent about $300.00 on having the movement cleaned/overhauled and the case restored to a brushed finish. I also crystal replaced for an additional $50.00.

It now runs as well or better than the day it was new and is a favorite daily wearer.

Happy trails with your search...and be warned that vintage watches are only slightly less addictive than crack cocaine.
