In reply to Martin Syrovatka. The problem with the modern Monaco is that the chronograph function has only a 30 minute totalizer; the sub-dial on 3 o'clock is the small/running seconds. The original "Steve McQueen" Monaco, with the real Cal. 11, has a 12-hour totalizer, with the 3 o'clock sub-dial having the 30 minute timer, and the watch has no small/running seconds indicator.

In reply to Bob Mills. Bob, that's great to hear. Wish I had purchased an Omega back in the sixties or early seventies when I was young.

I purchased my Omega Speedmaster Professional as a 14 year old back in 1972 and still wear it. Currently it’s at Omega in Switzerland getting a complete redo by placing the movement in a new case and bezel. It took a beating in the Army and college back in the day but still runs perfectly. Awesome watch.
