    @daffidavit Před 8 lety

    I was given a Speedmaster as a BD gift around July 30, 1969, just after Buzz Aldrin wore his on the moon as the first "Moonwatch". Armstrong left his 321 Speedy hanging on the LEM because the LM's internal clock went caput during TLI. My watch came with a plastic type crystal (Hesilite) which would scratch easily. This was because NASA didn't want broken pieces of glass floating in the cabin, in case of a face crack.
    However, years later, I sent the watch back to Omega for repairs. Omega upgraded the watch with all new hands and put a newer semi plastic crystal glass face on it. It is still Hesilite, but a more hardened version of it. I read it was common for Omega to do it this way back, rather than to try to maintain the original watch. The back of the watch doesn't have the "moon stamp" on it because the watch was pre-moon landing version. I've since learned that it has the .861 movement, probably one of the first Speedys with the upgraded movement.
    Thank you, Sid, below, but I had the watch opened recently to verify the movement. It is the .861 and I edited this comment since I last wrote it. But it was probably one of the first .861's made during this transitional period. Also, Omega gave me a new metal wristband during the refurb. The cost was only about $300 U.S. for the repair back in the 1990's. The original watch cost about $275- $300 U.S. with a twenty percent discount from Bambergers, now Macys.
    BTW, It is now known that the Bulova watch was worn by David Scott on Apollo 15 because his "Speedy" broke during the flight. Hum, why did he bring a backup Bulova with him which looked similar to the Speedmaster? All the Speedmasters were the property of NASA, so they are all now in museums, except the first Speedy on the moon worn by Buzz Aldrin. It was "lost in the mail" during shipment.
    Wow, the first and only Moon watch worn on the Moon was Buzz Aldrin's Speedmaster, and it was lost in the mail during shipment? And Dave Scott's Bulova Moonwatch recently sold for 1.625 million U.S. on an internet website auction because it was a private watch, not subject to NASA control?
    HUM. I wonder who possesses Buzz's Speedmaster on display in their private library next to their Cuban cigar and fine Cognac collection? Just wondering. No conspiracy theory here.

      John Doe Luckily i'm not one of those pretentious pricks who dont care about watches and who just use them as status symbols :D. i have a great taste in fashion and if i want to buy these kind of things i have to buy them myself(as in save up money). sadly i'm not going for the Omega speedmaster moonwatch now since i dont have enough money or if im smart i would wait a bit longer and save up more money. i'm planning to buy a Breitling Colt Chronograph which costs 3320$ with an additional 15% disc. since i got enough funds for that, but if i can be patient i would wait a bit longer to buy the Omega speedmaster moonwatch. I know people who dont have to do a damn and buy a watch for its brand name and looks but not knowing the functions or whatsoever.

  • @watchound.bernardo9738

    Great video, congratulations. I have a technical question if you are kind enough to reply. I bought the new Speedmaster 3861 a month ago and the winding is fine but it's hard to turn the crown. I tried other Speedmasters at the AD and most are smoother. I was told there is a tolerance range for the winding resistance. When almost wound the crown even turns backwards after each turn. First question: is this normal? Also, when I was at the Omega Boutique the watchmaker took the watch (he didn't give notice, otherwise I'd have asked him not to) and applied silicone oil on the crown tube. He obviously did not open the watch. I don't think the winding had anything to do with the crown/tube as it gets harder to wind when approaching a full wound. Second question: would the silicon oil find its way into the stem through the outside of the crown tube? Is there a rubber seal on the inside of the crown? Was this a harmless action or can it reach the movement? Thank you.

      Possibly they just replaced the main spring. As far as I know some high end services do that out of precaution

    If you buy a new speed master and have not used it and it's in a safe with today's new lubricating oils that Omega uses will it need service after 5 years still?

    Those high end watches need servcing? How come? My 400 dollar auto is 15 yrs old running +5 a day and not been serviced ever since I got it. How come?

    • @Smaug1
      @Smaug1 Před 6 lety +3

      You just jinxed yourself, bro. It will need service any day now. (assuming you're wearing it daily and it's not one of a big collection)

    • @victorkristiansen5447
      @victorkristiansen5447 Před 6 lety

      Well, they won't stop running at the service due point, similar to how your car will run fine thousands of miles after it was due a service. Luxury and affordable mechanical watches on the whole operate on the same principles, luxury watches just use better quality components. I service my watches every 5 years or so - I'd say your automatic is due one even if it's running fine.

    • @robertbrangan9617
      @robertbrangan9617 Před 5 lety +2

      Your $400 Seiko isn't worth the cost of servicing

    • @largol33t1
      @largol33t1 Před 5 lety

      It's not something that has to be done every year. I got my 10 year old watch a full overhaul and the factory said the O-ring seals were long gone. A drink splashing on it would have ruined the watch. Also, to my suspicion, it was running a tad too quickly so they had to slightly reduce the speed of the second hand.

    • @maromorostar6621
      @maromorostar6621 Před měsícem

      I will not service my watch, before something start to show it needs service, if the time is more off than usual etc. The newer watches from Omega can go for years without service maybe 15-20 years if not more. They tell you 5 years so they can make money. If its running well no need for service.

      James Mann it’s a ‘57 broad arrow reissue 3594.50.00. Not that I know all the speed masters. It’s just because that’s the one I own!
