Thanks, it is the re issue of the 1915 Petrograd out of their Museum collection. Production was limited to 1915 pieces but there are always several for sale at any one time. Being gold they polish up very nicely.

I really like this watch and bracelet.

Can you tell me which model it is and what the bracelet’s part number is please?

Thanks very much.

Thanks very much.

The watch head is just a standard 145.022 from around 1987. Very easy to come by.
The bracelet on the other hand is a model 1450 with 808 end links from the “Holy Grail” Speedmaster. They are tough to come by and if you find one in good unstretched condition, be prepared to pay 3-5 grand just for the bracelet.

Thanks for this.

I really like this combo, but I’ve obviously got a lot to learn about Omega bracelets. I had no idea that that one would cost that much! I do think it looks good though. I presume that you can’t but direct from Omega?

1450 is a very comfortable bracelet to wear, I had it last year on my previous 345.0808.

Long gone from Omega. They were only made in 1987 in 1988 and less than 2000 of them were made

There is a 1450 on eBay right now for cheap but its missing the end links which are near impossible to find on their own. You would need to find either 808 or 809 end links or alter another set to work. Its also missing a few links which are also hard to come by unless you have a really small wrist.
If you like the hunt then its priced ok for what it is.
