Omega 'Speedmaster' Broad Arrow Co-Axial GMT review

Firstly, apologies for the audio quality - it's a long story, hopefully not too annoying.
It's one of the jewels in my collection, the Broad Arrow GMT Speedy, a very complicated but elegant watch with an interesting and relevant chronograph movement.
Not included is any technical stuff about the co-axial escapement but I'd encourage you to watch any number of helpful videos on UA-cam explaining the marvel that is Daniels' superlative escapement design. Thomas Mudge's lever escapement was incredible, and Daniels' co-axial should be seen alongside his countryman's achievements in the pantheon of watchmaking greats.
Enjoy!

I just got mine in metal bracelet. It is huge. The largest wrist watch I ever wore but loving it very much. Now this replaced my Tag Heuer Link calibre 16 chronograph.

Nice review 👍

I have the Hyakuichi 101 hyaku1-003-WH, not quite the same but a far more affordable US$125 homage direct from Japan. I love that watch & it's always in rotation even though I suspect the company might be involved (wittingly or not) with replicas.

Hi - I'd never heard of Hyakuichi prior to your post, thanks for the info! Stay safe ⌚️

Nice watch and nice review

[@roshfoocowatchesthings5510]

Thanks! It's a beauty isn't it?! ⌚️

Rosh FooCo Watches & Things indeed it is! Only Speedmaster I’ve ever had was a Mk II vintage on bracelet (1970) which I foolishly sold and now can only wish for one as tines are hard

I hope those measurement callipers have non-metal guides, the clumsy way you measured and making contact with the case made me wince uncomfortably, look after that beauty and take better car man.

[@roshfoocowatchesthings5510]

Thanks for your concern! You'll be glad to know that all is well and the Speedy is tough enough to deal with the very finest plastic-headed calipers the world can throw at it! 👍⌚️
