Omega

Known for its beautifully intricate design, the original Calibre 321 was the first movement ever used in the OMEGA Speedmaster in 1957. Most famously, it was used in a variety of space-bound models including those that went to the moon. After extensive re...  

Sapphire crystal on the obverse, presumably. Seems like a nice, modern watch but at the same time an odd combination of vintage (cal. 321 in all original specs) and new (special platinum alloy, ceramic, meteorite). None of this is by way of criticism. I’l... 

Looking at Omega’s Pt pieces, it should be in the $50K range ☹️

Well, I know what my choice would be....

Give me this or a Dato and I'll take the omega. Yes the dato is better finished but looking at the complete package ... and the history The omega for me please

You’ll still take this Omega?

For me, this Omega doesn't embody that history. Perhaps a true-to-original reissue might, but not this one. Just my opinion of course. Word is that this will be in the USD $60K range, which I view as an astonishing price for such a basic movement. But I'm...

Heavy beast!

I think it looks fantastic, plus the beautiful movement, a winner. Vte

I don't think this will power the regular steel Speedy. They just upgraded the caliber 1861 to become 3861 (with co-axial). It does not make sense to sell same watch with different caliber. I think the caliber 321 will be reserved for special edition Spee...
