Omega Speedmaster 125 (178.002). The watch came out in 1973 marking the 125th anniversary of the brand – Then 23 years old Louis Brandt, the father of the brand, set up his workshop in June 1848. While it was not the only unique model that Omega released to commemorate this special occasion, it is the one most of us associate with the event. At the time the Speedmaster 125 was a very progressive watch both technically and design-wise. It incorporated many cutting-edge features. To start with, the case is thick, bulky and heavy even for the 70’s. It features an integrated bracelet, something not too many Omega chronographs from that era had (like the Omega Lobster 188.001). Staying with the case, the Speedmaster 125, just like the Mark IV, also has a two-piece case.
