This one caught my eye, any doubts about it's authenticity?

Looks like it, yes. It's the Triple Calendar Speedmaster. Long out of production.

Omega Speedmaster Tri-date..........

Yes very much likely a genuine one. Those complications are extremely hard to replicate correctly. That's why the replica makers usually pass on models like this. So much to replicate and too much can go wrong trying to get it right. It is a very nice sleeper of an Omega Tri-date Speedy. Has not caught up yet in most collectors eyes. not yet at least. That's gonna be a nice rare catch to whoever gets it at a nice price.

This complications is in fact just an eta 7751 that omega named 3606 when they ad a fancy rotor. And there are quite good asian versions of this similar watch. I dont think they make the reps anymore cause they are sold out everywhere.

purtime used to have it.

Im not saying this ebay auction is about a fake omega. Im just point out there are good reps of this types of 7751 movement watches. so just be careful and ask the seller a lots of questions.

best luck

I had one like this with a silver bezel. Found that the 20mm band made it too dainty.
