A marmite Speedy? This was an unnumbered and unlimited production watch between 1998 and 2003. It was officially named by Omega as the "Replica" model as it was identical in dial/hands/ bezel appearances to the 1957 first issue Speedmaster. Standard 42mm case though,as well as crown, pushers and bracelet as per the 1998 era Speedy Pro. Not uber-valuable (at least in Speedy terms) but very very nice. Mint one's are fairly easily available at £2,000. I think at that money they are unbelievable value and a great piece to have.

This landed Tuesday while I was away. Just got back and trying some strap combo's. Not a very common Speedy - this is #169/500. These were LE's for Italian market in 1986 and again in 1988.

Thanks! It is: 3695.50 They were made as 'standard production' Speedy Pro's with a production window between 1999-2012.
Mine is a NOS I found held by a collector. Wanted one for ages. The solid gold Speedy Pro's all tend to be LE/anniversary models so this is the unadorned 'basic' Speedy Pro Moonwatch with standard moon watch caseback is nice, IMHO. It comes with a black croc strap that tapers to a 16mm 18k deployant clasp - slightly more vintage vibe than the 18mm deployant clasp on the current steel Speedies.

I absolutely love that /gold Speedmaster.
Thanks!
I did a SOTC a few weeks ago, where there's a few better pics:
