For an only watch for what i presume
Would be for a non-watch(?) person, a good candidate would be the FOIS (first Omega in space).
Comes with strap, not a bracelet. Alpha hands. No crown guard which I think makes it dressier (yet retaining that pro / sport vibe) versus the usual speedy. It’s sapphire as well. I’d say it’s probably the most versatile moonwatch variant out there given your requirements. If you want brand new, there’s definitely some wiggle room price-wise. Value retention wise, depending on acquisition cost, should be able to hold its own over, say, a decade of ownership. I was able to sell my regular speedy which I had for over a 15 year period for close to double. Not exactly an assurance or yardstick of value performance but it’s a data point to consider nonetheless. Plus I think it’s one of the easier watch models to move out there relative to other speedy variants.
Hope this helps.
Speedmaster Moon watch reference (3 Chrono subdial) for a single and only watch? Suggestions for an AD?
At first, I thought this would be an easy set of questions to answer. After mulling it over, though . . .
thanks Art....ok well when you just consider new apparently omega gives only two choices:
Your friend should be able to find a ref 3573.50 in the $3K - $4K range . . .
