Created in 1969, the Mark II was the first full-scale redesign of the classic Speedmaster Moonwatch case. The name itself was chosen to signify the model’s status as the second generation of the manual-wound Speedmaster.

The new model was offered in various distinct styles, including stainless steel with black dial, stainless steel with grey and orange “racing” and “yachting” dials, rare gold-plated with a gilt dial, and a rarer version in 18k yellow gold.

Powered by the caliber 861, the Speedmaster Mark II’s barrel-shaped case, also referred to as the “Pilots’ Line” case (as it shared the basic design with the “Flightmaster”), had its roots in a now famous “secret project” that OMEGA was working on at the time.


This is a beauty Omega SpeedMaster Mark II Reference #145.034 in Gold 20 Plating (which is the much rare model), Serial number dates to 1970. It is very rare to find one owner watch, this was sold to me by the son of the owner that passed, and was originally bought by the son as a gift to the dad. 

This was was bought at the EL Toro Marine Base Post Exchange in Orange County California on June of 1977 (the based closed July 1999). Sold to Mittelms as a gift to K. Zike which is also inscribed inside the buckle of the bracelet with the what looks to be the address.

Come with Box, Papers, and original bracelet in a very raw untouched condition.  Defiantly a collector watch.  The watch is working and Serviced by last owner. Very few left as complete set.

Please look at all the pictures, as they are part of the description. This is a highly collectible watch as is and if you like the look can easily be changed to burgundy  crystal.  Sure, to increase in value overtime, and a great addition to your collection.

The condition of the watch is the same as it appears in the photos.  The watch is working and is part of our new  Certified Pre-Owned  CPO Program. Contact me if you have any questions first.
