Incoming! Omega Speedmaster Professional 3572.50

Upgraded my my Omega Speedmaster Reduced to this 3572.50 thanks to George! Absolutely love the hesalite crystal! The reduced I had was Sapphire.

My watch "collection" now consists of this guy and a DJ 16013 with a white face. I feel comfortable with this setup for the foreseeable future.

Cheers!

Ryan

Great choice!

The hesalite/sapphire is a favorite of mine.

Welcome to the SPOC! Your cards, sir:

Welcome to the team. Amazing watch and one that I hope will stay with you for a long time.

Here's a pic of mine. I can't say this about most of my watches, but this one really is a 'keeper':

I will never understand why they decided to discontinue the Hesalite Sandwich - really is the best of both worlds. It would be one thing if the Sapphire crystal they had similar optical qualities as the Hesalite, but the difference is stark. Also, the "milky ring" really detracts from the dial's balance.
Wear your new 3572 in good health, and yes George is one of the great ones out there.

Helluva pickup, and quite the one-two punch you have with the Speedy and the DJ. I'll never understand why Omega discontinued the Hesalite Sandwich.
