I have both in my collection. I've never considered one to be nicer or better looking than the other, nor have I ever thought of the reduced as an entry watch. Just a great watch that is increasing in value and looks great on the wrist. All very simple.
@michaeledwardlenzi3 жыл бұрын
Your points for selling are well thought out. I will say two things: 1. The reduced Speedmaster looks appropriately proportioned on your wrist. 2. 99.99% of people would not notice any difference between the reduced and Pro versions. We watch enthusiasts make this up in our heads. People see general shapes and colors. The aesthetics of size and model are the bread and butter of enthusiasts. We look for reasons to sell one and buy another as if the logic is actually sound. It could be logical though. If I start digging ditches and my only watch is a Patek perpetual calendar, I would be justified in selling it, if I could only have one watch, and buying a G Shock. That said, if it was time for the watch to go then so be it. I totally get that. --Michael

To those who want the iconic look of the Speedy but have too small of a wrist to pull off the Pro, the Reduced is a great choice The size is perfect and it wears so slender on the wrist. I'd say its probably the only mechanical chronograph out there thats not quite vintage but has vintage proportions. While the service cost does take up a huge percentage of the cost of the watch itself...I'd just bite the bullet and get it done via Omega. It's a flat rate cost of $750 (same for the pro) and they replace all the hands, pushers and crystal too Dont regret mine one bit at all! Its a keeper for life and I dont think about the Pro anymore. Thanks for this video Oleg

Good video and I'm looking forward to your first impressions. After 10 years of really wanting one, I finally put down a deposit a couple of years ago. After learning that this reference was going to be replaced with the 3861, I decided to go for it. It is the most I have ever spent on a watch and cost more than my entire 4-watch collection combined. I'm not a rich guy and the price of the Speedy Pro always held me back. But, the events of 2020 cancelled a milestone birthday vacation in Europe and I finally thought, "What the h*ll. I do want to mark this birthday with something positive, after all of the negative we've had this year." I like your channel. Keep up the good work.

Happy New Year Oleg and Mr Bond! I’m definitely an Omega Speedmaster Professional fan. My current collection consists of Seiko/GS, Hamilton, Oris, and others. I’m trying reducing my collection from 46 to something more manageable and also so I can eventually purchase the Speedy Pro. I recently let go of a Hamilton Frogman and am selling another Hamilton. Also selling off my 2 Alpina Alpiners. With that I’m down to 42 and I’ll hopefully get 40 in the beginning of the year.

Seagull 1963 is probably the chrono for me, for now, and eventually an Omega Speedmaster Reduced. These watches will be the correct porportions for my wrist. As for my collection, all I'm aiming to add is a watch I pre-ordered that arrives in February. Other than that, I'm not looking to add for now, unless I free up the money or 2 Hamilton's and a Longines that I want to purchase. Stay safe, and Happy New Year.

Pro is borderline on my 7.35” left wrist. Was tempted by a reduced I saw in a shop window a year ago but hesitated on the modular movement and offset pushers. My wife got me the pro on the gator with separately purchased speedy pro bracelet for our anniversary. Wear it all the time and keep polishing the Hesalyte. Still haven’t used the bracelet. Have it on the NATO from the box. This is my favorite NATO: so supple that I actually like the traditional NATO fold because it’s so unobtrusive on top of wrist, all business color, signed buckle and keeper. Omega gator strap is superb, under appreciated in my view. The signed deployant is in matching finish to the watch, signed, mechanically seamless, and deployant wings are LONG enough to slip the watch over my hand with NO fuss so I can better enjoy the wind off the wrist. Looking for the perfect rubber strap to complete the outfit. Needs to be 20 mm at the lugs and 18 to fit the Omega deployant I already have on the gator. I want the watch ends rounded to snug up to the case. Got a Strapie rubber but its deployant is short winged, mechanically insecure, painful to slip over the hand, and untapered so I can’t fit my Omega deployant buckle. My next chrono will be a 38 mm El Primero. The size is perfect for me, newest leather strap is curved at the lugs and snug to the case. The deployant opens wide enough to slip off but secure and mechanically smooth. I love the 4:30 date: readable without turning the wrist square. That 400 movement: high beat, first integrated automatic chrono. It’s 100M water resistance makes me feel less afraid it might get wet. Failed to move on a mint with blue dial, box, papers and extra bracelet to my continued regret. Happy New Year to you, your fiancé, and Bond. When are you going to announce a date? You won’t regret it. My speedy pro came on my 40th anniversary.

Great Video Oleg! You gave 5 reason to sell this great watch but really only needed 1-2. You stated it perfectly. As a chronograph freak I just bought another chronograph (Victorinox Air Boss w/7750) for cheap. For the money a great watch. But at 42 mm and 15 mm thick it wears big (what I actually wanted). But now I'm selling it. Why? White dial and silver hands are difficult to see easily in low light. I know this rule but broke it again thinking the light green lume on the silver hands would make it more visible. But no. Don't be fooled! So now I need a little advice and may give some to you as well. I'm thinking hard about a Zenith Type 20 Pilot's chronograph with El Primero at 45 mm (a traditional size for a pilot's watch). Like you (7 1/2" wrist size) it's bigger than my 39-42 mm standard size I normally wear. So it's a tough call and I wouldn't mind your advice. I've also been looking at a new Type 20 watch from Airain. You might look at this watch, it's has some outstanding features (looks, manual wind, fly-back feature, movement). Just a recommendation for you to look at. Hey Oleg, by the way, my wife and I just got a new dog 2 months ago from our shelter after our Frenchy "Brie" passed away 9 months ago. She's 11 months old, 50% French bulldog and a mini-aussie mix. She's about the size of Bond (27 lbs) but looks more like a larger sized short-haired Jack Russel. She's a crazy good dog with more energy I've seen in a dog and jumps like a White Tailed deer when she's in the brush. Keep up the good work!

The reduced had the perfect size, had sapphire crystal, was automatic, the only downside was the 30m wr which was compensated by the overal price.

I have had numerous chronographs and am prejudiced in favor of native or integrated chronographs as opposed to modular chronographs. Similarly, I am prejudiced in favor of manual wind chronographs, preferably without a date complication. The iconic Speedy is one of the Professional references. Ironically, my current Omega is the 2014 Mark II reissue with the 3330 caliber which is a souped up coaxial Valjoux 7750 with silicon escapement and silicon balance wheel. I like form watches and love the particular bracelet. I would generally state that I find it hard to conceive of having a watch collection without at least one Omega to one’s liking. I have gone down the rabbit hole of multiple Parmigiani, Rolex and Grand Seiko references and I still find an Omega in the collection to be both quite satisfying and essential.
