    Omega Speedmaster / Pricing

    Appreciate that this is a "how long is a piece of string" type question but for a modern Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch what would I be looking to pay. Many thanks for any advice on this

    That's the one. The scratches would easily have been polished out at the next service. I was on holiday at the time, otherwise I'd have pulled the trigger.

    Nice ones will go for 1.5k. I'm actually after reduced 3510 version. Cheaper and smaller watch for my skinny wrists!

    I've seen these go for £600 but the going rate I'd say is 850-950

    Seems that this is now the price as the same chap sold another one recently for a similar price. Take note anybody out there who is thinking of selling.

    Extraordinary price for a lovely piece. I'd say £1500 would have been right.

    I sold mine yesterday (not on here) for a fair £1415. A good example from 1991 on bracelet. No box or papers, but in really good condition. I believe that's a reasonable price.

    Is this thread;

    A - a kind of 'Want to Buy' ad

    B - For people interested in buying a Speedmaster so thry can talk the prices down

    C - For people who own, or are thinking of selling, a Speedmaster so they can talk the prices up

    Or, is it all of the above?!

    Surely, the price of a Speedmaster is dictated by many things? The recent passing of Armstrong seems to have revived interest in them, certainly on here.

    I think the answer, rather than the standard 'what somebody is willing to pay' is that Speedmasters sell for a range of prices from £1k to £1.6k. The price would seem to depend on condition, boxes/papers, service history, strap or bracelet, sellers financial circumstances and whether it has been 'pre-advertised' via many lovely photographs in multiple threads! ;o)

    Am I grumpy this morning?!

    Selling for 1415 with no box or papers. I think you got a very good deal.

    I think that price is pretty spot on in Sweden, given that the condition is very good and there's no need for service. Used ones with B&P seems to go about £150-200 more.

    i'm going to ask a really simple question, hoping a speedmaster guru can come out with the right answer;

    how come the vintage ones range in price from £800 up to £5k?


    now i know why the £5k ones are priced like that, rarity, but all the other variants?

    £800 sounds cheap...are we talking about Speedy Pro's or Speedmasters in general? :)

    Omega Speedmaster / Pricing

    I bought a 1978 speedy pro moonwatch for last week for £1250 box no papers so I think £1250 to £1500 is about right to pay depending on condition

    Now I'm with you! :)

    I think the MKII's is a bit "special", a bit of a WIS-watch (smaller market) and the regular Speedy Pro has a bigger market for selling (not a watch for WIS only...). Maybe that can explain the difference in price between those?

    they are all different my step dial 1971 looks much nicer than a new one.

    it comes from the time of the space race as well.

    so the price wont be the same.
