@KLucero22

I agree about the micro adjustable clasp. But regarding the transparent back on both, Omega used to but they stopped. There has not been a hesalite front with a transparent sapphire caseback since ref: 3572.50 which was discontinued at around 2002. At the time Omega omega offered 3 versions of the Moonwatch: -3570.50 the hesalite front with solid caseback, technically THE moonwatch since this is the only one officially flight certified for use by NASA. This has the 1861 movement -3572.50 the hesalite front with sapphire caseback, nicknamed the "hesalite sandwich" with an 1863 movement -3573.50 the sapphire front with sapphire caseback, nicknamed the "sapphire sandwich" with an 1863 movement But the 3572.50 was eventually discontinued since people either wanted the official hesalite moonwatch for its flight certification or the sapphire sandwich for everyday wearability. There was a very small number of people who actually preferred the hesalite front with a sapphire back. So Omega streamlined the portfolio to include only the hesalite version with a solid caseback and the sapphire sandwich version. My favorite version personally is the ref 3592.50, this version has the hesalite front, sapphire back, tritium dial, and a gold gilded 863 movement.

BEWARE, OMEGA PRODUCTION ERROR - All Speedmasters with cal.1861 or cal.1863 movement (manual wound) paired with 5th of a second markers on dial (seconds divided into 5 parts) or paired with 4th of a second markers, and all with cal.3220 movement (automatic) paired with 5th-second markers on dial, have INACCURATE READING of the chronograph hand due to NO FIT between dial-markers of fractions-of-a-second and the movement’s beat-frequency per second. Cal.1861/1863 beat at 6 vibrations per second (6VPS) and require a 3rd or 6th of a second per marker between the seconds; the cal.3220 beats at 8 VPS and require a half or a 4th or 8th of a second between the markers. This affects Speedmasters with reference no. 311.10.39.30; 311.33.42.30; 311.30.42.30.01; 3590.50; 3572.50 et cetera (if they have 5th of a second markers paired with a 6 BPS movement - cal.1861 or 1863); 311.30.42.30.03 (a 4th of a second per marker); and it affects Speedmasters with ref. no. 3510.50; 3510.12; 3520.50; 2598.80 etc. (if they have 5th of a second markers, i.e. each second divided into 5 fractions of a second, paired with a 6 beats per second movement - cal.3220 or 1151 etc.). Incidentally, those with ref. no. 311.32.40.30.01.005; 311.30.42.30.01.004; 311.33.40.30.02.001; percent 311.32.42.30.04.003; 522.30.42.30.04.001 (cal.1861); 311.30.42.30.99.002 (cal.1863); 3876.50.31 (cal.1866) that have a 1/3 of a second per marker (each second divided into 3 parts, i.e. 2 sub-markers between each marker of a full second), are correct. Even Tudor had the same production error/design flaw, on all their Valj.-based 28,800 BPH (8 BPS) movement equipped Heritage chronographs, having 4 dividers between each full second marker, making it a 5th of a second per marker, with a CHRONO-hand that jerks forward 6 times per second and always miss the first and the third quarter-second-marker). Only now do we see it corrected. And only now have we recently seen Omega NOT cheating in this regard, more than 50 years after they stopped making their 18,000 BPH (5 BPS) movement, cal.321. They even cheated NASA, in the 1960s, equipping the astronauts with a 6 jerks per second chronograph hand over a dial with only 5 fraction-of-a-second markers. How lame and criminal isn’t that ? Even their so-called 1957 reissue has a 21,600 BPH (6 BPS) movement paired with each second divided into 5 fractions on the dial. Right, a CURRENTLY ONGOING mass sale of factory error/design flaw equipped CRAP, useless for what it is marketed as, a precision instrument for accurate split second timing. Criminal.

But I recently bought the pagani speedy and at 100x cheaper, superb case strap and dial, it's not bad wrist candy. And is actually slightly better for strap adjustment, sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel but as a chrono its appalling. Sub hands vanish in most lighting the centering of the hands is off and the mecha quartz feels like it will last about a month. I short if I was on for a speedy the pagani is the best advert omega could have. But hats off to the pagani for everything but the mech and final build.

Great review! Over at the Timeless Watch Channel it’s mentioned that the edges are razor sharp. Do you find this as well?

Thank you, and comments like these are all I am seeing on here, the edges are not razor sharp but they are sharper then the previous model. It is nothing anyone would normally notice as the edges of the case don't even touch your skin and it isn't really sharp. I'm making a video addressing this with my wife wearing the watch that should be out in the next few days.

Omega’s frequency and subsecond marker MISMATCH is FRAUD. They use 6 and 8 Vibr/Second movements combined with 1/5th sec markers on the dial. The chronograph hand misses all sub-second markers on all of these speedmasters, cannot be stoppoed on any of these markers, for almost 60 years, and no one talks about it. DESIGN FRAUD for profit - well done.

So in short: they messed up another good thing instead of leaving it be. Now the task will be to still find a like-new 1861 before prices go up thanks to the new abominations.

@@chrisltj I don’t get why they had to throw in their coaxial mechanism just because they can and bought the patent. Doesn’t belong into this classic. They had an opportunity to take the reissue 321 movement and put it into a classic case. Instead they came up with the glass sandwich silliness. Otherwise I don’t get the black dial, different edges, lugs, and cheap looking (and likely cheaper made) wristband.

@@swampscott2670 I'm pretty sure that after 26 years, Omega decided that the specs just weren't up to par as far as accuracy and anti-magnetism on the 1861. It was also based on a Lemania movement, so they probably wanted to put an in house one into it instead. The 321 movement is being built by 2 people and is on a 2-3 year wait for the Ed White re-issue. The sapphire sandwich has been out for over 20 years. I suggest you go check out the piece in person, you may be impressed with the dial especially, it has a lot more dimension to it. The bracelet is up for debate but most people that have tried it on have loved it.

@@christopheralexopulos1747 To each their own. I could have had the "Ed White" but passed when I figured out what they did there. Maybe interesting for collectors or speculators but nothing I like. I'm not into museum pieces or glass bottoms etc. A "moon watch" in my book should be as close as possible to the ones that were actually used, either on the moon, during space walks, or on the shuttle missions. Same reason I'm not interested in the X33 (or one of them), even though they use them on the ISS and more recent launches. I may go look at one of the new regular ones but just judging by the videos and photos it's not my thing. including the new movement. "Better" is not always better. My $50 Casio is accurate and antimagnetic, but who cares?

I agree, they've changed too much of its DNA, changing the movement to co-axial was a wrong move. Forget the dot over 90 on this new model! How can this be paying homage when they've thrown in such a drastically different movement. Omega should have taken this opportunity to improve upon replicating the actual moonwatch, as let's be honest. This is the selling point of this watch.

I DO NOT recommend the 2021 version of the speedmaster. Its dial texture is just too ugly. Moreover, I DO NOT recommend this watch-talker. Stop this "3 hertz" nonsense of yours - the relevant number is 6: 6 BEATS, per second. (you don't even know what Hertz is but the term is useful for DISTRACTING from the fact that the 6 BEATS per sec NEVER takes the chronograph hand to ANY of the 1/5 sec MARKERS on prev versions - the IDIOTIC detail that makes the 5 past decades a HOAX, just like the Rolex Daytona's 1/8 of a sec hand jumps across 1/5 sec markers. Laughable. 1/6 of a sec and 1/3 of a sec measurement is stil USELESS in sports though, 1/8 sec much more useful.)

Hi Kai, thank you for your note. To clarify for you if you don't know -- hz is an industry wide measurement standard for watch movement frequency and is listed on Omegas website under every watch. Your beef is not with the presenter.
