I just found out that my fiancée has gotten me one of these for her wedding present to me. I’ve been watching tons of these reviews in excitement and yours is one of the best. Thanks for the hard work!

This is probably the sickest intro to a Speedmaster watch video I've ever seen. Amazing work.

Thank you for the great video! Very nice pictures, professionally executed and all the important facts mentioned. Perfect opportunity to get an impression what the updated legend is about.

I sold my 1861 for the 3861 last week and everything you said sums up what I think. I absolutely love it, much more comfortable on the wrist and easier to wind

I love Omega's connection to Dr. George Daniels - ie. the co-axial escapement. His approach to horology was uncompromising and just knowing that same philosophy lives within this Speedmaster (or many Omegas) is tantalizing. Great video (especially those macro shots!) and keep up the great work!

Great review. I agree with you, the best update to the speedy in many years. I finally pulled the trigger and got it a couple of months ago and I’m over the moon. I opted for the sapphire version after a lot of research into the actual specification from NASA back in the days. They did not have any requirements regarding the crystal and the only reason the approved watch had a hesalite crystal was that it was the Omega go to crystal at the time for this watch. It’s the nicest watch I’ve ever had and I feel so happy every time I look at it.

Some parts of your comment are not accurate. As explained by Watchfinder and quote: "Acrylic, the versatile plastic behind everything from hard contact lenses to paints, offers a considerable benefit over glass when used as a watch crystal: toughness. While not as hard as glass and therefore less scratch resistant, acrylic offers twice the resistance to fracturing-and any light marks can simply be polished out. It's propensity to crack instead of shatter on failure is also beneficial, maintaining its structure and therefore reducing the overall damage to the watch. It's why it's used in submarine windows. Acrylic comes under a multitude of a trademarks, including Plexiglass, Perspex and, of course, Hesalite. This toughness was the motivation behind NASA's decision to retain acrylic for the Speedmaster's crystal when it was selected as the official watch of the Apollo program. Omega did offer to swap the Hesalite out for a newer, harder material-sapphire crystal-however NASA determined that that the failure characteristics of acrylic were favourable to the propensity of sapphire to shatter in the same way as glass. The consequence of a thousand tiny shards of very sharp sapphire floating in zero gravity drove the decision to stick with the tried and tested Hesalite".

I picked up this same version a week ago today and I couldn't be happier. I previously owned an 1861 and could never bond with it, this one is a totally different story. It checks all the boxes. I was apprehensive about only two micro adjustments but it fits perfectly. I'm a bigger guy (6'2 265) and I was concerned about the 15mm taper on my wrist but it isn't an issue at all. I also own a Planet Ocean 43.5 and wore it today for the first time, went home at lunch and put the Speedmaster back on if that tells you anything.

Je suis horloger diplômé, collectionneur Omega et JLC et un ami de feu Marco Richon, conservateur historique et célébre du musée Omega à Bienne. Il me semble que la tranche du boitier de cette nouvelle version à l'air plus épaisse que l'ancienne version d'origine de la Speedmaster. La montre est très belle avec une réitération du style de la Moon watch de la fin des années 60 au niveau des aiguilles et surtout de la trotteuse et des poussoirs. Maintenant pour avoir des modèles à échappements co-axials, je peux vous assurer que ce type d'échappement, bien qu'il apporte au mouvement de base 861 une plus grande stabilité de marche sur de longues périodes d'utilisation ,son seul gros défaut, c'est l'arrêt complet total dû aux déchaussement d'une ou des levées sur l'ancre, elles sont plus épaisses que ceux d'une ancre de type suisse classique à cause de l'ébat et jeux verticale. Donc au bout de 7 à 10 ans suivant le fait que vous la portez continuellement ou pas, vous aurez un arrêt définitif qui demandera une intervention du service omega. l'ancienne version 1861 ou 861 pourra largement fonctionné plus longtemps sans entretien mais avec une précision qui se dégradera au fil du temps. Aussi, les ressorts moteurs étaient réputés pour se casser au bout de 4 à 5 ans en moyenne. Cela m'est arrivé de changer en moins d'un an le ressort moteur. Seul point faible de ces calibres. Les pièces détachées sur les co-axials sont quasiment indisponibles à la vente aux horlogers indépendants à part les pièces communes au 861. J'avais réussis à resouder les palettes d'échappements sur l'ancre co-axial avec la résine végétal, mais le résultat était moyen quant à la précision. Chez omega , ils changent les organes d'échappements , roues et ancres.

Nice video, thanks! Just got mine in saphire version and I love it! I also have small wrists and wearability is great. I did however purchase the black Nylon/Leather clasp bracelet. This makes the watch even lighter and comfortable to wear.

My dad had a Speedmaster moontwatch Gemini XI with the Nasa logo. Sadly he had to sell the Watch for personal financial reasons for a ridiculous low amount. I bought the hesalite 3861 few weeks ago as an hommage to my dad and I love it so much.

Really liked your video. Articulate and informative. Glad you like your new Speedy.

Thumb up before you even said a word :) I did the same thing, bought it from the AD the moment I tried it on my wrist, despite owning a few Speedies in my collection. The differences are subtle, but surely impactful! On power reserve, many have tested it and I did it too, it's about 65 hours from full to stop, instead of the 50 hours listed in the specs. I think Omega listed it as 50 for the sake of meeting the Metas requirement of accuracy at low power, as I did observe it runs considerably faster at the last 10-15 hours. Feel free to give it a try!

@@WatchCrunchOfficial Yup, I checked on my notes again. Mine is running a bit fast to begin with, especially resting dial up on the table. At full power it is about +3.5s/day. My measurement indicates the first 24 hours at 3.7s/day, the 2nd day was about 6s/day, and from the 50th hour to 65th, it measured 11s/day. Other positions should make it a bit slower. I've seen 2 versions of technical explanation on accuracy and power. One graph from Archer (the respected watchmaker at Omega Forum) indicates most movements slow down as amplitude drops. But I also see others commenting that frequency will increase due to the "pendulum length" shortens as amplitude drops. I'd trust Archer more, but this watch surly demonstrated the other way... so I don't know. :P

Totally agree with everything you pointed out. And already upgraded from the 1861 (which I loved for 2 years) to the better altogether 3861 hesalite.

I've sold two 1861s, but... this may have convinced me...I need a Speedy back, and this may be the one.. Selling my IWC Mark 16... and saving for the Speedy.. here we go again! Yessss your video really helped with the decision

Have seen many videos on this watch. Yours was one of the more enjoyable. The only 'flaw' in this watch, as you mentioned, is the power reserve. I think a sweet spot would be atleast 10 hours past however many days it can go, in this case 58. That way you can just wind it every other day without having to worry about missing your window if you slept in or got distracted. Two hours is cutting it close.

I don't know that I would upgrade if I owned the previous generation, but the upgrades do have me even more interested in getting one. I agree with you on the power reserve. 2 more hours isn't much of an increase for such a dramatically upgraded movement. With so much else coming in with 60-70 hours now a days, I think 70 would be great, especially for a hand wound movement. The one bummer about the hesalite version is not being able to see that gorgeous movement. That would likely push me toward the sapphire model.

Great watch, and I love it. Though people should be aware that the 3861 movement has teething problems. The chronograph function on my 4 months old hesalite has started acting up (stops at 58 seconds, which also stops the running second and the watch altogether). Did a bit of research and it's not an uncommon ocurrence for people who use the chrono function frequently. Dropped it yesterday at the Omega shop, who told me I should have it back in a couple of weeks. Fingers crossed that they fix the issue permanently.

@@WatchCrunchOfficial Since you're into Omega Speedmaster's, do take the time to read carefully through this thread: omegaforums.net/threads/3861-movement-broken.120071/ The issue that affects my watch has affected a number of others, and is basically down to a design flaw in the bushing connecting the center wheel to the main plate. They seem to have corrected this as of June 2021 (changed the bushing), but virtually all watches produced before then are susceptible to develop this issue over time. Not to say that they all will, and it depends on the watch usage, as apparently this affects predominantly people who use the chronograph function regularly. But the potential for trouble is there, until the watch is serviced by Omega and this bushing is changed. This means that all of us who have bought the Speedmaster Professional in the first few months after its release in January 2021 (and the ones who have bought the Apollo 11 50th Anniversary or the Moonshine) are beta testers of the new movement. Oh, and Omega has known about the problem since at least September 2020.
