Omega Speedmaster Professional ST 145.022 A Highly Important and Extremely Rare ”Sultanate of Oman” - 1991AThis lot is a highly important and exceedingly rare Omega Speedmaster Professional stainless steel chronograph wristwatch, reference ST 145.022. This specific variant belongs to an incredibly select series commissioned by His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said and presented as esteemed gifts to high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The true highlight of this exceptional timepiece is the presence of the national emblem of Oman?the distinctive Khanjar (curved dagger in a sheathed belt)?engraved on the solid caseback. Only 10 of these 'Speedy khanjar' pieces are known to ever have been produced. This unique provenance elevates the watch from a historically significant ”Moonwatch” to a museum-quality artifact of both horological engineering and royal history. Featuring the iconic 42mm case profile, classic black ”step” dial, and powered by the robust manual-winding Calibre 861 movement, this is an incredibly scarce opportunity for discerning collectors, with only a handful of examples known to exist globally.Stainless SteelSize: 42mm x 47mm;Private London CollectorThis item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
