    I own the 3861 and have tried this 321 piece and the latter wears larger IMHO.. the 321 is thicker with a longer lug to lug with those pointed lugs vs the slightly curved 3861. The larger case size of the 3861 is due to the crown guard so you barely notice the size difference

    Think i must be the only one who thinks its not luxury to have generic instructions in languages i dont understand for watches i dont own, history of barnd and key models os fine . ... It shows they cant be bothered to get you the correct instructions in the correct language, its not an omega only issue .

  • @SezerKemal
    @SezerKemal 4 місяці тому

    Although the Moonwatch itself is an icon in horology world, the problem with Omega is releasing “too many” editions of this model. Omega should value the Moonwatch more by narrowing its lineup and stick with the “hesalite only” standard production model instead of countless reference numbers! This is probably the reason, why Rolex Submariner still known as “the most iconic and desirable watch” of all times.

    The case is a deal-breaker for me--I wouldn''t even look at the watch.
    A fine watch is supposed to denote elegance. The idea that I can't simply walk into a dealer and buy and walk out with the watch and all the packaging in a small bag--but instead need to drive there or call a cab--and then I'm stuck with this useless valise that becomes an albatross that I'm required to store in my closet, in case I ever decide to sell the watch--and if do want a box to actually keeping the watch in, I have to go buy one--Sorry, my reaction is to tell Omega to go to hll.

      @@ListenToPowerViolence Delrin, the only plastic in a Speedmaster, isn’t in the 321 or the 3861. But it was a superior addition to the 1861/3. As for discounts, everybody used to do it. I’ve bought more than one Rolex at an AD at discount. It was simply the model for many years, same as cars. But stopped when Rolex, Patek and AP moved more towards sole distribution. Omega make watches that people can buy. At a price significantly less than Rolex.
