sorry but this doesnt impress me by looks standards and wont get anyone saying hey what ya go there for a watch,sorry it just wont,just a nice plain watch though
i do not like the fact that this is a manual watch, rather than self winding watch. this means you have to manually wind it on a daily basis to keep it running. that sucks
@dakaraabbccdd yeah i like the leather also but just remember to not damage the case or the strap. personally I would get the one that has leather but it has a different clasp on it.
Ive got one of the 50th anniversary coaxial Speedmasters limited to only 1,957 in the known universe.
The chances of going to any party or function and seeing somebody else wearing the same model Speedmaster is very unlikely.
The majority of these watches according to the dealership i bought it from were first made available to chosen collectors known to Omega and only around 800 were released to certain jewellers who had surpassed their Omega sales targets.
Maybe you should email the author of this video as well and have him remove the music track since it's "solely" about the timepiece and nothing else.
While you're at it, point out to him that he should also remove the oak desk in the background as well. We wouldn't want any other viewers inadvertently envying any other aspect of this video if at all possible.
i agreed i had a seamaster and after a years it would not change date and the case and band is not a good guality steel. i own a rolex gmt master 2 for about 4 years now and never had a problem also the 904l steel is really good. after 4 years the watch still looks new.
I can't believe anyone would think for a minute that there's a better watch than a '60's Hamilton self winder, just one of the ordinary slimline styles--a perfect watch. Wouldn't consider spending unnecessary money trying to top it. And you might even say it takes a licking and keeps on ticking, but that's the wrong company slogan. Still true though.
Rolx GMT Master over a Speedy Pro? Rolex is a lottery-winner's, noveau-riche's, "Hey, look I've got money!'s choice... Just about everybody's got one.. Omega is a much better choice
Well I've had one for 20 years and its never kept good time and I have spent a fortune getting it serviced. My Rolex GMT Master is ten times this watch, Dont be foled by emotion.
Agreed - while Speedy Pro is a histoircal icon, it cannot match the Rolex GMT on accuracy and durability. The plastic crystal and the handwind movement are part fo the legend so I won't compare them with GMT's sapphire cystal and auto movement. The Speedy Pro lacks a true hacking function and it requries some patience and skills to master the synchronization of the second hand dial at the 9 o'clock position. To me it is a drawback as it is supposed to be a pilot's/astronaut's watch
The only think about the Rolex is that everybody seems to have one! Last week I went all dressed up with my GMT II to a party and three out of four valets got Rolexes! Gee...
unbelievable watch, brings tears to your eyes. i'm seriously considering getting one. nasa can't be wrong: truly an everlasting masterpiece of design and engineering.
just bought the speedy 3573.50. couldn't say no to the skeleton back/ ss bracelet. almost got the planet ocean/ to big and looks like a rolex. i wanted an omega not a rolex.
automatics dont work in space, its gravity that winds the watch and there aint to much of that in space! that said most automatics can be wound manual as well so it does seem a bit odd, the later ones are autos anyhow!
This is a very nice watch with a lot of history behind it. For the folks who complain about scratches on the crystal: The material was chosen for a specific purpose. Unlike sapphire crystal that shutters in small pieces upon impact hesalite crystal scratches and cracks. When you're in a space shuttle you don't want to have small pieces flying around. That's why the original moon watch has hesalite. Ditto for 30m depth rating. You want air to go in and out easily without popping the crystal.
I have one, Omega Speedmaster (not professional) 1967 I think, leather strap, beautiful design, restrained and elegant by modern standards. Its true the face scratches easily, it is not crystal glass but plastic of some kind, but easily polishes out. I love it.
I have a Speedy and it's true, it's a durable watch. A friend of mine asked to borrow it one time to attend a dressy party at some highrise penthouse. Long story short, his girlfriend messed around with some other dude while there, so he jumped off the balcony, falling 60 floors to his death. My watch? Returned to me in perfect working order. It was kind of a bitter-sweet day for me, I guess you could say.
The watch is excellent.....but the problem is that Omega timepieces at large get scratched easily (both the sphere and the bracelet). Be careful when wearing sleeveless shirts...this watch is not suitable for everyday use
It's entirely suitble for everyday use. I use mine almost every day.
I once scraped an Omega sapphire crystal on a rough concrete wall and didn't get a scratch on it. I have non-Omegas too so I know the damage that should have been caused.
ohh yess. after a year of hard work i have bought myself this wonderful piece of a watch. i have reduced speedmaster with leather wristband just as this one here and i like to wear it every day.
Superb with the leather strap

The newest Speedy has a 1861 caliber (3570/3573) - the last gen. was a 861 caliber - and the one that went to the moon was a 321 caliber.
