Nicolas (amanico) shares an intimate look at his "Red Nugget," the ultra-rare Omega vintage Speedmaster Alaska Project. This piece explores why this particular reference holds such a significant place in his collection, transcending the often-overused term "grail" to represent a truly exceptional horological dream. His post offers a rare glimpse into a watch with only a handful of existing pieces, making its story particularly compelling for collectors.

My Grail, my " Red Nugget ". 



Or without its red shield: 



If the word Grail is over abused, often, here we can safely say it is not the case. It is a stuff of dream, with only a handful of existing pieces. 

What a watch!

Best,

Nicolas

I own the Alaska project from 2008. The thing I don't get is why every other limited edition has exploded in price but this one keeps sitting at 10-13k. Even TinTins are going for 16k.
