HELP! Looking for 3572.50...

Hello all,

Disclaimer alert: please forgive any error on my part, I am completely new to watches.

I am looking to purchase a first watch as a wedding present and had my eye on the Speedmaster. By nature I'm very curious and having read several forums, blogs and articles, I've been leaning towards the new Hesalite (311.30.42.30.01.005) because of its vintage look and feel (and history), but at the same time I love the back sapphire case on the Sapphire Sandwich one.

And so my research has led me towards the 3572.50, which basically has both features I'm looking for. Can anyone help me, is it possible to find a new 3572.50? If not, what would be the reliable and suggested way of purchasing it second-hand? Any idea what they go for approximately?

On another note, is it just the Omega website or are the 3570.50 and the newer version actually different, because the pictures on the website don't look the same at all...

Thank you so much everyone for your help!

Cheers,

3572.50 are getting quite hard to find these days with its short production run.
Especially the full set.

3570.50 and the current full box set moonwatch (if we're taking hesalite version) is identical except the bracelet and the extra box set (the current set has screws on the links instead of pins).

3572.50....finding new will be a difficult task and I'm sure pricey. I would find a nice condition full set instead. The man you need to talk to is George Hsu/Kringkily (on omegaforum usually) since he can source /find speedies better than anyone I know (I've bought my share heh). Easy to deal with and worry free. Good luck and enjoy the hunt.

Best of luck to you on the hunt! In general I find it difficult sourcing many Omega watches so totally feel your pain there. I can tell you from experience though, once you finally get it the feeling is even better
