Incoming first omega purchase

Been into Rolex and AP, and here’s my first Omega Speedmaster! I must say that the quality of this watch is on another level for this price point. Very happy with the purchase

I think it looks like a phenomenal piece honestly. Should be and could be way hotter in the future.

I agree! I like how Omega position themself in the current watch market. It would be very hard to name a watch that can beat Speedmaster’s price point, exceptional quality and long-lasting history. Besides, I think Omega did a good job with the little improvements in each of the Speedy’s iteration, especially this one with the new bracelet and 3861 movement!

Thank you I’m still in the honeymoon period with this piece and I guess it will last for a long time.

Thank you!! I was in a dilemma of choosing between the 1861 amd 3861, and finally my heart chose this one (of course combined with the fact that it came with a new bracelet and subtle dial modifications. However, both 1861 and 3861 are definitely great watches!
