Description

This is an automatically translated text.
Omega was not thrilled to rest on his laurels to be the official watch used by NASA astronauts. The story seems to indicate that Omega wanted to follow or complement the Moonwatch with something more modern and aimed at the needs of a space explorer. The result, launched in 1969, was the Omega Speedmaster Mark ii 145.014. With its smooth, stronger case and a flush mounted mineral glass, it seemed decidedly better suited for the job. According to tradition, nasa was contacted to take a look at the new Speedmaster, but apparently did not pass the tests in its Alaska Project mission planning.
Perhaps unconsciously, however, the Omega Speedmaster Mark ii 145.014 had a much greater effect on the general watch market with the introduction of the case, tonneau, or cushion-shaped watch, which became absolutely symbolic of 1970s watches around the world.
The particular thing about this watch is the racing dial, which is striking. It is a unique blend of orange, white, magenta and grey that at the same time seems very thick, but is clearly coordinated enough to seem current today.
Another hallmark of the Omega Speedmaster Mark ii 145.014 design is the use of an integrated tachometer bezel. It is actually printed on the back of the mineral glass and, as specified above, the glass is flush with the case.
In addition it is a watch that you wear well. the watch appears a little thicker than a standard Professional, but is more robust and solid.
