Why doesn’t the Omega Speedmaster get as much hype as other Omega models such as Sea master, Aqua Terra etc.?

Uh… you mean the moon watch, certified by NASA, that went to the moon, and was the first omega in space, that was worn by astronauts who went to the moon?

I honestly can’t think of a watch that gets more hype.

I’d say it get as much or more hype than those models. There is literally a day of the week dedicated to wearing Speedy’s.

Uhm…not sure what you’re talking about here. The Speedmaster is widely considered Omega’s most iconic watch and one of the most iconic watches in general. I can’t speak to what you’re specifically seeing in terms of secondary market but resell prices are often impacted by supply and the speedy is widely traded so that might explain what you’re seeing. But I don’t agree that it gets less hype…

I doubt you’re comparing a standard, modern AT with a modern Speedy. The latter will definitely command a higher price on the 2nd hand market (as well as MSRP).
Seamaster should be pretty similar to Speedy I believe.
Make sure you’re comparing similar models/periods.

It’s not just the Speedmaster for Omega, but the Rolex Submariner is crazy good for the price. Yet, no one ever talks about it. I would venture to say it will be a future classic. Pick one up while they’re still available

funny

I think Daytona is a better example. I see Submariners everywhere

Speedmaster is the GOAT Omega. Puts the Seamaster to shame.

I personally cannot stand it, but I will grant some deference because it’s a Bond watch 🤷‍♂️

In what world is the speedmaster not hyped???

Aesthetically I love the look but just wondering if there is something about the movement, dial etc. that makes resell prices less than other Omega

I view the Speedy as the Omega. Feel like it’s the most loved of the lot.

When I was looking at buying an Omega, the SA said if you are going to only buy one Omega, it has to be the Speedy Pro.

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time
