Omega Speedmaster Triple Date

Here's a first impressions review of the Omega Speedmaster Triple Date Automatic, reference 3523.80. In this video, I talk about why I chose this particular model, look at the specs of the watch, and share my opinion about the Omega Speedmaster Automatic line of watches.

[@LazyGrayF0x]

I had one, sold it, regretted, got it again. Such a fine piece.

[@robertngates]

One of the benefits of the 24-hour subdial is if you are setting the watch again you know where it is in the AM/PM cycle so you don't go passed and set yourself up for a lot of winding!

[@doctaab]

One of the best reviews and personal thoughts for this watch!

[@chrisauge6802]

Thanks for the review Dave. Good to see you doing videos again.

[@RichardHulsebos]

I've had a 3520.50 for years, LOVEIT, runs like a charm, idd +-5 sec a day of, i own a lot of other watches but this is one of my favorites

[@DavesWatchLove]

It was absolutely the most beautiful and interesting watch I've ever owned, but with my eyeglass prescription, the only way I could see the watch clearly was to hold it about 18 inches away. By that point, I couldn't read the smaller dials. I literally tried talking my eye doctor into changing my prescription just so I could read that watch better. Didn't work out so I sold it. I wish it were a 41 or 42mm, at least that would have worked better for me. Well, enjoy that amazing watch!

[@abrayshaw1657]

Thanks for the review it was a good one. I own a later model purchased new in about 2014 with the black dial. The size is 40 mm. It keeps good time at +2 seconds per day. I sold a Seamaster to replace it with the Speedmaster day date because of the chronograph feature. I have other Omega's but this is my favourite watch. It is a solid well made watch and an object of functional beauty.

Great looking watch, and good review. I been tempted to get one for quite a while now, but I would need to reset all three date functions every time I want to wear it or figure out where to put a watch winder in the apartment. I have given up on the idea of a triple date at this point for this reason.

[@counterhit121]

I'd been eyeing the black dial variant of this lately (3520.50), but got to try this on at a store recently. I'm really glad I did, because although I am starting to transition my collection to

[@DavesWatchLove]

Yes, I sold mine simply because it was too much information in too small a space. My old eyes couldn't adjust.40 or 41mm would seem about right.

[@markpritchard]

I treated myself to this watch a few months ago and i love it. Its only my 2nd watch my everyday being a 1997 seamster blue dial or basicly the bond watch. My tripple date is my special special occashions watch. I love the seamaster becouse its so simple and clean, but i love my speedmaster tripple date becosue its coplicated. I've gone for both extreams. Paid £2000 for mine which came with box and papers from a reputable dealer.

[@johan0234523]

I bought the same watch some time ago; I really love the blue dial, and the fact that there's a dependable Valjoux 7751 inside.

[@ListerMotorsports]

I've been wearing that exact piece on a NATO strap almost daily for several years . Perfect size, in have a few vintage Moon Watches that I find to be too bulky at 42mm. Great vid Brother

[@viranjith]

Just picked one up and it is awesome!

[@DavesWatchLove]

You'll really enjoy it. It's a beautiful piece!

[@deanburney]

A small framed businessman doesn’t need the Moonbeam to wear with suits. He needs This.

[@mtweeks]

I just got mine 2 weeks ago and I am very pleased. Slightly different bracelet but otherwise a carbon copy.

[@viranjith]

Great video.

[@badgerresistance4322]

That's my favorite Speedmaster

[@markpritchard]

I have this watch. Its my special ocashions watch and i think a good investment over time as they don't make them in tripple date anymore. 39MM is fine on me as i have small wrists so it looks normal sized on me. I use a blue wave dial 38mm seamaster as my everyday watch.

[@JonGar1911]

This was first luxury watch. I bought it brand new in 2007 while on mid tour leave from Afghanistan. Bought it wore it took back overseas. This watch hasn’t been babied at all. Between all the afghan “moon dust” and daily wear its still a tank of a watch. When I first purchased it I did try on the professional, and being fairly new to higher end watches I was turned off by the mechanical ⚙️ winding and its size. Fast forward to 2022 and I wish I would have bought both! In the near future I will definitely be adding to my collection with the original speedy. Cant have one too many!

[@Sad.YTbruh]

Im about to buy one very similar, the difference is the besel on mine is made from 18kt solid gold and the crown and other two gold plated and the bracelet have gold lugs the middle ones

[@deanburney]

That is boss as Hell. Don’t need the Moonbeam. Not for everyone.

[@viranjith]

Beauty!!

[@barrycolmer324]

Great video thank you. I wonder, have you had any further issues with the watch as im looking to purchase one? Regards Barry

[@avemaria4788]

What is the top of the three circles for, and the bottom one, and will the day of the week, the month, and the day of the month change on their own?

[@VicharB]

Planning to buy one in a good and preferably mint condition, little hard, but then there are not many reviews on the net for 3220.50. Any links, please?

[@wholeNwon]

Mine is identical to the one shown. Bought new from an authorized dealer. Have all the boxes, etc. Loss of vision so no longer used. Worn fewer than 12 times.

[@ricky-tn1dk]

I have a question regarding the month function, does the watch detect the 30 and 31 days for each month? (Hopefully 28 days for Feb) too.

[@lucianooliveira1703]

Thank you very much for sharing this review, I did not know this model, it is so beautiful. Could you kindly inform the total size of the case (lug to lug)?

[@DavesWatchLove]

I don't have the watch any more (sold it to fund my SMP300). But I found a couple of listings for the watch that say it's 45mm lug to lug.

[@lucianooliveira1703]

Dave's Watch Love thanks for the information (I could not locate these numbers on the internet). Although it is a very beautiful watch, I think you also made a good choice with SMP. Enjoy good health.

[@cema.165]

Does anyone know the difference between the speedmaster 3521.80 and the speedmaster 3523.80? I am undecided if there are clear distinctions.

[@DavesWatchLove]

That's a good question. The only difference I see is in the 24 hr subdial at 9 o'clock. The 3523.80 has numerals every three hours. The 3521.80 has the numerals every two hours. Other than that, I don't see a difference.

[@mohamedsalama4322]

Can we use the 24hrs as GMT option?

[@DC-si8xw]

No, just military time, does help with knowing wether the watch is at am or PM for setting the date if you haven't worn the watch and are setting it again

[@mrsir1872]

I really wish this had 20mm lug width. The 18 feels so thin and dainty

[@jasonclarke589]

I just purchased this watch and have a dumb question. To wind this watch. Do you go clockwise or counter?

[@maxb5947]

I bought mine a couple of days ago for a little over 2 grand. Worth every penny imo. It's a phenomenal watch, gives you everything you need and more. I'd literally take this watch with me to the grave lol But I was wondering, what's the lug to lug size on this watch? I've been meaning to change the strap and I'm not really sure tbh

[@DavesWatchLove]

Hey there. Great watch and yes, one to love and hold on to. The lug width for a strap is 18mm. I don't know what the lug to lug distance is across the watch from one end to the other, if that's what you were asking. Hope that helps!

[@traviskoh999]

the blue dial speedmaster chrono hands are also hard to read

[@abdulrahmanalajmi3308]

It’s a Nice masterpiece .. Do you know how many hours of Power reserve ??

[@jamesgreen807]

44hrs

[@chrisamador1311]

How much did you pay for the speedmaster chronograph you said you got it for a good deal. Please get back to me

[@DavesWatchLove]

$1,350

@@DavesWatchLove thank you so much for responding. I'm looking to purchase my first omega and I just wanted to make sure I was getting a good deal aside from not having the box the watch is in mint condition have a local seller selling it to me for $1,000. I am referring to the same watch as the one in thus video except a cream face instead of a blue face.

To be real, only watch nerds notice other people's watches. "Normal" people just don't care.
