So, I’ve been eyeing the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch for a while now, and I finally decided to pull the trigger on the sapphire crystal version with the Cal.3861 movement. I gotta say, this thing is a beauty, and the whole process of getting my hands on it was quite the experience.
First off, I started browsing around online, just to see what’s out there, you know? I saw a bunch of listings, some folks were selling theirs that they’d barely worn, claiming they were in “excellent” condition. And man, the demand for these watches is crazy! One listing I stumbled upon had over a hundred people watching it. That’s when I knew I had to act fast.
Then I started digging deeper into where I could actually buy one. I found a few online stores that were boasting about unbeatable prices, free same-day shipping, and even financing options. It sounded pretty tempting, especially with the promise of “buy it today, wear it tomorrow.” They had all sorts of models too, from stainless steel to gold. This made me think a bit about what I really wanted.

I also did a bit of reading about the history of the Speedmaster, just to feel more connected to what I was buying. I learned that the older models, the ones with the Cal.321 movement, were all made in-house by a single Omega watchmaker. They’re pretty rare and, apparently, quite expensive. The current model I was after, with the Cal.3861, is a modern take on that classic design.
After all that research and browsing, I finally found the perfect watch. It wasn’t the cheapest, but it was from a reputable source and came with all the right paperwork. The anticipation while waiting for it to arrive was killing me! But when that package finally showed up, it was all worth it.
Unboxing it was like a ritual. The watch was even more stunning in person than in the pictures. The sapphire crystal gives it such a clear, crisp look, and the way the light plays off the dial is just mesmerizing. I strapped it on my wrist, and it felt like I was wearing a piece of history.
Now, I’ve been wearing it for a few weeks, and I’m still in love. It’s such a versatile watch. I can wear it with a suit to a fancy event or with jeans and a t-shirt on the weekend. It always gets compliments, and it’s a great conversation starter.
A Real Keeper
All in all, getting this OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch was an awesome experience. It wasn’t just about buying a watch; it was about becoming a part of the Speedmaster legacy. And let me tell you, this baby isn’t going anywhere. It’s a keeper for sure!
