Speedmaster Pro Ref#s

Ok - am I correct???

3570.50 = hesalite/1861
3572.50 = sapphire back, hesalite front/1863
3573.50 = sapphire "sandwich"/1863

But the 1861 is the true speedmaster movement correct - the 1863 has never been to space?

A very small amount of research, on your part, would confirm or deny the correctness of your statements.

1861 has also never been in space only the cal 321 and very early version of the 861 can be said to have been up there. 1861 is just a 861 with rhodium plating while the 1863 is just the 1861 with an upgraded brake for visual enhancement.

Thank you.

Surely, the 1/30th of my life I've spent in Ann Arbor hasn't affected me so.

Maybe you should start a thread asking for Omega's web address.

Trut me it has. Get out while you can.

And Omega's website is as useful as your posts. But not everyone can be as helpful around here as the rest of the members that have all been patient with me while I figure this Speedmaster puzzle out.

George,

I feel sure you meant "to the moon" as the current 3570.50 with the 1861 is current NASA issue.

As for the 1863 going into space, all we can say is "not officially" but astronauts are permitted to wear watches other than the standard issue 3570.50.
