For The Speedmaster Fans
We proudly announce the upcoming Speedy Tuesday Event on the 29th of October that will be held in the Space Expo, ESA-ESTEC’s visitor centre in Noordwijk, The Netherlands.
The Speedy Tuesday Event will be held on Tuesday the 29th of October, from 16:00 (GMT+1) and onwards. Both new and vintage Speedmasters will be present as well as the Fratello team and OMEGA representatives. Perhaps even more important, there will be a lot of fellow Speedmaster enthusiasts as well. Including a number of people who contributed to Speedy Tuesday on Fratellowatches.
With the help of OMEGA SA and the Space Expo, we have been able to combine all required ingredients for what we think will be a unique experience for Speedmaster fans.
