1991 Omega Speedmaster Professional (Ref. 3590.50)
The Omega Speedmaster Professional is by far one of our most favorite chronographs. The Speedmaster has an incredible history starting with automotive racing moving into flight and eventually to NASA and the U.S. Space Program. There are many subtle differences within the vintage Omega Speedmaster range of references that make them all slightly unique and different.
The ref. 3590.50 replaced the long-running 145.022 reference in 1988, though the new reference continued to stamp the inside of the case back "145.022" and continued to employ the workhorse Cal. 861 movement.
The Speedmaster looks great on the bracelet as well as a handcrafted leather strap. It is one of our favorite chronographs due to its timeless design and functionality. Its versatility to be paired with the most formal and casual of wardrobes also makes the Speedmaster a good choice for the first vintage timepiece and a classic daily driver.
