Speedmaster

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch reference 3572.50 is a highly respected and historically significant chronograph, directly descended from the model worn during NASA’s lunar missions. This particular reference is especially appreciated by collectors for combining the traditional Moonwatch aesthetic with a sapphire crystal caseback, offering a rare view of the beautifully finished movement.

Housed in a 42 mm stainless steel case, the watch features the classic asymmetrical Speedmaster design with twisted lugs and a brushed finish, ensuring durability and timeless appeal. The fixed black tachymeter bezel remains an essential functional and visual element of the Moonwatch lineage. The watch is fitted with a stainless steel bracelet that enhances its sporty yet refined character and provides excellent comfort for daily wear.

The dial is the iconic matte black Moonwatch dial, featuring luminous hour markers, white hands, and three recessed chronograph sub-dials for running seconds, 30-minute counter, and 12-hour counter. The layout offers exceptional legibility and remains faithful to the original design specifications approved by NASA.

This timepiece is powered by the Omega calibre 1863, a manual-winding mechanical chronograph movement. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the calibre 1863 is known for its reliability and refined finishing, delivering an approximate 48-hour power reserve. While not COSC-certified, it is based on the legendary calibre 861 architecture and is widely recognised for its robustness and precision.

This certified pre-owned luxury watch is presented in very good condition, with light signs of wear consistent with careful ownership. It is accompanied by its original Omega papers only, with no box, and therefore is not considered a full set.

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch 3572.50 remains a cornerstone of any serious collection, combining space exploration heritage with horological authenticity.
