**Some background about this special timepiece**: Omega introduced this now iconic Flightmaster in 1969 and it was initially sold as a groundbreaking pilot’s watch with an independently adjustable second time-zone function and AM/PM indicator for pilots criss-crossing the globe. In 1971, the Flightmaster line was upgraded with the reference 145.026 that you see here. Four different variants of the Flightmaster were released from 1969 to about 1977; three of these references would be made in steel with one in solid gold. What makes this second generation of the Flightmaster different from the first one is the inclusion of a running subsidiary register at nine o’clock. Omega changed this from an AM/PM indicator to a continuously running seconds register. This generation is referred to as the "911" and used a modified Caliber 861 movement. The running seconds indicator is visually similar to the Speedmaster, but that's no surprise, because functionally, the watches are quite similar. Also, like the Speedmaster, the Flightmaster has a Spacefaring connection. In much the same way the Speedmaster was favored by NASA, the Flightmaster was favored by ROSCOSMOS, the Soviet space agency. **Includes**: Watch only on a new suede strap, Omega travel pouch, original bracelet with Heuer clasp **Video showing all features working flawlessly**: [https://streamable.com/h10ixt](https://streamable.com/h10ixt) **Condition**: In great condition for the age, with all functions working immaculately and the watch keeping excellent time (was serviced by a local watchmaker in Brooklyn \~2 years ago). There are some scratches on the glass that intentionally hasn’t been replaced as I think it adds to the nostalgic aesthetic charm. There is some fading on the iconic caseback, but the aircraft that adorns the caseback is still very much visible. There are also scratches on the case and it’s been polished, but I think it adds beautifully to the vintage charm of the now 50+ year old watch. Subdials were originally black but has faded to a beautiful red-ish brown. **Price**: *Slightly negotiable* $2,700, comps at $4k, so really priced to sell. Price includes shipping to U.S. **Shipping**: Will ship insured through USPS Registered Mail. **Feedback / Reference**: I have sold a lot of watches through eBay but am just getting started on Reddit so happy to do a Facetime or share my eBay to give the buyer full confidence in the sale. **Payment**: Bank wire, PayPal F&F (or G&S with references), Venmo, Cashapp I am local to the NY / NJ tri-state area and can do a local purchase if the buyer is local to me.
