Why is the Speedmaster the star of vintage watches?
Ah, the Omega Speedmaster. Just its name makes you dream. It is THE watch that accompanied the astronauts during the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon. Well, ok, the exact model of the mission was a little different (hello Moonwatch!), but the Speedmaster, in general, is much more than a watch: it's a symbol. Whether you are an experienced collector or just an enlightened amateur, a Speedmaster is a masterclass elegance and functionality.
The model we are talking about here, the Omega Speedmaster Ref. 1750032, is part of the 90s lineage, a decade where the style had quite a personality. It offers everything we love in a vintage watch: a design that spans the ages, a unique charm and technical characteristics that prove that it was designed to last.
The specifications that make the difference
If we get to the heart of the matter, here's what this little steel beauty has in store:
- Reference: Omega – 1750032
- Year: Around 1990
- Movement: Automatic (and that's a real asset for fans of mechanical movements).
- Diameter: 39mm – perfect for a discreet or average wrist, but frankly, it fits almost everyone.
- Bracelet material: Steel (robust and timeless).
- Glass: Plexiglas – a detail that adds an irresistible retro touch and softens the light on the black dial.
- Functions: Chronograph and small seconds.
Condition-wise, we are talking here about a model in very good condition, revised and guaranteed for 1 year. In other words, you have a timepiece ready to wear without stress. Add to that delivery within 24 hours and a period of 14 days to change your mind. Concrete.

But why buy a vintage watch like this?
It's simple: the vintage watch is not just an object. It's a piece of history that you wear on your wrist. Unlike new models, a timepiece from the 90s like this Omega Speedmaster has already lived. Each micro-scratch tells an anecdote. And then, let's be honest: the second-hand market is booming.
In addition to being an eco-responsible act (yes, even in watchmaking), buying a vintage watch can also be an excellent financial decision. Models like the Speedmaster have a rating that remains stable – and even increases over time. And at 2,980 euros, this particular model represents an excellent compromise between accessibility and investment.
The charm of vintage with the guarantee of new
You may be wondering: “Okay, but does a watch from 1990 still hold up?” The short answer: yes, and yes again. This model has been expertly serviced, meaning it has been carefully inspected and adjusted to run like clockwork (literally).
Plus, with a one-year warranty, you can rest easy. And if you're the type who wants to see before you buy, the watch can be viewed in a showroom in Paris. There's nothing like an on-site meeting to let yourself be seduced in person.
3 reasons to click (and quickly)
- Rarity: Vintage Speedmasters in very good condition are not seen on the streets. And at this price, they go quickly.
- Timeless style: With its black dial, its steel bracelet and its 39 mm diameter, this watch adapts just as well to a suit as to a casual outfit. A true style chameleon.
- The smart investment: An Omega Speedmaster is a safe bet. If you take care of it, it will take care of your wallet.
