After Roar loaned me his MK4,5 I just knew I had to have something similar.
Well, this puppy came up for sale at a Norwegian watch forum and just minutes later it was mine My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Icon_biggrin
Not even close to Roar`s beautifulle MK4,5 in finish, but not bad looking for a 40 year old My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 203558

Very nice pickup, congratulations.

If you are looking to have it overhauled, I would suggest that you use Omega Switzerland. The older watches taht I have seen come out of their shop have all looked brand new.

Can't say enough good things about that case shape !
It's just so classic and so exceptionally good looking. My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 46145
This is pretty much a perfect design imho!..AMAZING !
Looking into the black of that dial, you can appreciate
how well done it all is. I also think the detail going on,
on that bezel is OUTSTANDING !..Awesome photos as
usual too ! Congratulations and ENJOY your new Omega ! My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Icon_biggrin

I was going to change from the strap to the mesh today, but the old springbars fell to pieces in the process Shocked I guess the springbars were as old as the watch My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Suspect I rushed off to my local pusher and got a set of new springbars and within seconds and without charge the mesh was on My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Icon_cheers I guess there are certain benefits to being a return customer Laughing
So here she is, all meshed up and ready for action My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 203558

Unbelievable how good this watch looks with mesh Kenneth !!!! My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Icon_biggrin
I mean the watch looked GREAT before, but now it's just off the charts
AMAZING ! My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 46145 My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 46145 The way the light bounces of this mesh is simply
stunning. It looks like it belongs with the watch too ! Sometimes things
just work real well together, and this watch, with the mesh work EXTREMELY
well together !!! My first Vintage-Omega Speedmaster MK2 Icon_cheers Awesome pictures by the way ! ENJOY !!!
