The "mark" series is trully a great achievement
for Omega I think. A symbol of 70's specific aesthetics with a good Lemania caliber.
My watch had received many strokes (sailing) and the box was full of scars, it was really well restored, keeping the angles square. As you mentionned, and you probably guessed, I forgot to say that the crystal has also been changed. But you're right Art, I didn't know the polishing of the box would have led to this result, I wear it 6 days /7 ^^
Thanks for your comments both, and MRSnak you're half way !
Cordially,
Mark

Little review of my Speed Mark IV
Hi everyone, As recently member of this forum, I thought I could share with you a small review of a watch I love, my Speedmaster Professional Mark IV. This model has been produced from 1973 to 1974, ref ST.176.009, in the straight line of the "Mark X" ser...
Wow, another Omega back from the spa . . .
. . . and just as delectable as Zac's Seamaster 200. That's a tip-top Mk IV, Mark. I underwrote the restoration of a Mk II several years ago, and similarly replaced the hands, crown, pushers, and crystal, but the work was performed locally, and without re...
Thanks, Art I may have to send it off now...
That's a gorgeous Mark IV. I've been enamored with the Omega "mark" series ever since I got the Mark II. Now also have a Mark 4.5, but the case has never been restored. All I need is a Mark III and a Mark IV as nice as yours (love your original dial) and ...

Very enjoyable reveiw
Thanks for sharing it is really a great watch that looks in great shape for its age. Best regards, George
That is is magnificent.
The Mark IV is one of my favourites from the period too as the Cal. 1040 is such a good looking dial lay out. I used to have a Mark 4.5 ref 176.0016 (traded unfortunately) and loved it but seeing your mark IV makes me very jealous. The restoration has bee...
I must say I nearly have as much pleasure...
...in wearing it as my Lange ... Maybe because it came from my familly but it is a great watch, in many details, and quite well balanced and sober. Thanks all for your messages, Mark This message has been edited by Borale on 2011-04-05 06:10:02
a great watch Mark and in pristine condition
its one i've never owned despite having several of the other marks, but i did have the 1045 which is very similar. enjoy it and i look forward to seeing it on wristscans in the future. this is the type of watch that shows clearly why there are more vintag...
its a double subdial Ubik....
its a double subdial Ubik. it has a 24 hour indicator(not 2nd time zone) and constant seconds the same as the speedmaster mk3, mk5, 1045, speedy 125 (1041 cal) and the triple date auto speedy. best to you from a right know all G...
Wunderful piece..
...really well done job, a watch you can only be proud of belongs to you Best Hans

Thanks both of you,
I indeed already saw a picture of yours Georges (you're worldwide famous you know), with 2 or 3 other Mark X owner, and I must say that's also a bit of what made me send it to Bienne. Have a good day, Mark
