I have pipe cleaner wrists. I basically gave up on the idea of a chronometer until discovering Omega makes a 38mm. Pretty cool.

The most informative video on the Speedy Reduced and the 38. I hope you will also make cool videos like this in the future.

I love the 38 Bling and I was going through the same issue ...that helps a lot and it's a very beautiful watch.

Appreciate this video - I also am not blessed but would love a Speedmaster. But at least we can reach under the couch and behind cupboards easier!

Thanks for the video. I have both the original Moonwatch 1861 and a Speedmaster Racing in the 40mm size. I’m not exactly sure of the reasons but with the crown and pushers offset there is difference in the type of movement I thought. One suggestion for your future videos is to leave the watches flat on the table rather than holding them to give us a better look at them side by side. Again thanks for the video, I enjoy seeing both watches.

38mm look better, thank you for sharing 👍

I like the notches

Picked up my first ever luxury watch and it was the 38mm white dial speedmaster. Absolutely love it and sits way nicer on the wrist than the 42mm. Submariner next!

To me, I prefer the Speedy Reduced. I like bling but it has to hit the aesthetic mark. I prefer the cleaner bezel on the Reduced and don't care about the date complication. Also I believe the Reduced is a thinner watch which matters on smaller wrists in particular. They are both beautiful watches of course and no losers. What matters is you chose the watch 'you' prefer and there is a far amount of preference tolerance when it comes to what watch speaks to each of us.

I too have a thinner wrist. I also wanted a Speedmaster. So some 22 years ago I went to the local (only) Omega dealer & tried the 42mm. It wore way too large, I was considering a Seamaster when I spotted the Reduced Speedy. This was my first really fine watch so I was kind of unaware of movement or ref. The reduced fit perfectly. I paid my $900.00 and they sized the watch for me. I wore it constantly until about 4 years ago I broke one of the pushers. It spent the next couple years ion my dresser. I dug it out recently and decided to bring it to my local professional watchmaker. He gave me a price for a full service including replacing the pushers. It was $750.00. I told him I only paid $900 for the watch brand new. He told me the watch, after servicing, would be worth appx. $1800,00. Now I can't wait to get it back.

I’m interested in this watch. I think I prefer it to the racing because it doesn’t have the texture on the sub dials. I wish it was 40mm and had white hands. Thanks for an interesting video.

ur the man for making this video

Interesting vid. I am fortunate enough to be able to rock the professional on my wrist with no issue. I do love the design of the traditional speedmaster, so the reduced would be my first choice, visually at least. I feel like the 38 is it's own watch instead of a slightly shrunk professional. I think the 38 is an interesting watch on its own, a bit more flashy. Thinking about the 38 as a shinier and differently proportioned speedmaster does it no service imho.

Trevlig video, 38mm mycket lik pagani 1701 v2, videon hade varit 100 procent om dö kanske var mer stilla med klockorna..... ❤️

Love the topic since I am in the market for a 38mm Speedmaster. If I may give you an advice for future video''s though? Try to keep the watch more stable. The fidgetting and moving around of the watch so much makes me enjoy the image a lot less. Keep up the good work Patryk.

For me it’s the reduced but i I think it’s just personal choice. I have a Sapphire Sandwich & many people have said Hesalite better but not for me. I would be selling the other one but that’s just my preference. 👍

38 is the winner for me

One looks like a more “masculine” tool watch- the other more elegant and refined. I like them both for those reasons.

Top vidéo 👍

the 38's nicer for me. Good vid

Does the 38mm have a screwed down crown?

I have not worn either watches as of yet, after the comparison I dont think I could do the reduced model.

What is the size of your wrist? I have been thinking about the reduced too.

I prefer the 38 for suuuure.

I went for the 38

same here, small wrist cursed with watch love!

Hi, a bit of cash to burn and looking for a chrono which I don't have; I have a de Ville and Seamaster, so thought this Speedmaster would go quite well having wrists of 18cm. However, Ive been given a link to a used well looked after 1 year old Zenith el Premiro Heritae 146 in brown at £1.5k cheaper. Brown is nice, but case looks a lot like my Longines St Imier black analogue. So I'm torn between the two....... pointers and suggestions welcome

Does the thickness ever bother you? The 38 is a very thick watch

What’s your wrist size?

If the 38 was as thin as the reduced and had the same bezel, I would prefer it, too.

old bezel looks sooo mutch better

I actually prefer the speedmaster racing 40mm, slightly larger than the 38 bit I think it is better looking than both of these.

Both nice. But I’m much more partial to the 38 bezel.

Omegas are getting harder and harder to find deals on, even grey is selling the 38 for ~4k5 now

Personally I prefer a thicker watch my normal daily chronographs are 17mm thick and one 20mm thick one. I’m looking at a speed master soon and want the thickest one available

What size is your wrist?

About 6.25-6.5 dependent on the dag

Definitely the reduced

Great video but moving the watches around in your hands so much gives the viewer motion sickness.

38 is a beauty but will loose 50% resale value

and deals and grey isn't really discounting this much

Shoot me a message! I’m happy to answer any questions

Reduced is overpriced. For the technology that is available today. If i buy a reduced for around 3 grand I’m gonna likely have to get it serviced. That’s another 750 bucks. I’m better off getting the 38.

Omega service is a rip off unless your watch is heavily damaged and need new parts. They overcharge you by replacing hands, pushers, crown EVEN when they're perfectly fine. A reputable independent can service the reduced at half the cost and turnaround.

Omega reduced is the winner, speedmaster should not spark and not be 14mm thick.

Sell the 38 and buy a used Rolex Explorer 36.

Some suggestions to improve your video. 1. You may not even realize it but you are moving and shaking the watch way too much as you display it. That's annoying to the viewer and made me hit the pause button repeatedly to get a good look. Please stop that. 2. The background is way too "busy." Yes, it's an "OMEGA" poster of some sort but it really is a distraction, not an enhancement. It makes the eyes "wander" rather than focus. And as far as not being "blessed" with larger wrists, consider yourself as definitely "blessed" to be able to fly to Scottsdale, play golf, buy and own two Omega Speedmasters and a Seiko SARB. Sorry about all the negativity. But I predict you're going to regret selling the reduced.

Why are You shaking and moving those watches, it’s too distracting.
