Omega Speedmaster - 3510.50

Details

This is a vintage Omega Speedmaster Automatic Chronograph reference 3510.50, affectionately known among collectors as the “Speedmaster Reduced.” Produced in the late 1990s to early 2000s, this model offers the iconic Speedmaster DNA in a slightly more compact and wearable format, with a 39mm stainless steel case and 18mm lug width.

The watch features a black dial with three recessed black sub-dials arranged for continuous seconds, a 30-minute chronograph counter, and a 12-hour counter. Both the hands and hour markers have developed a pleasing, even patina, adding vintage warmth and charm to the otherwise stark tool-watch aesthetic.

This example retains its original Omega-signed crown, stamped bracelet (fitting up to 7.25”), caseback, dial, and movement, making it an honest and highly original piece. Both the dial and case remain in excellent untouched condition, free from distractions and consistent with careful wear over time.

Inside beats Omega’s dependable automatic chronograph movement, providing the functionality and reliability expected from the brand’s Speedmaster line. Fully serviced and keeping excellent time, this watch is ready to wear and enjoy.

For collectors who appreciate the heritage of the Speedmaster but prefer a slightly smaller case, the reference 3510 Reduced remains one of the most versatile and collectible chronographs of its era.

History

In 1957, Omega released the Speedmaster as a racing chronograph. Eight years later, NASA put it through a battery of extreme tests — temperature, humidity, vacuum, shock, vibration, acceleration — and in 1965 certified it as the official watch for all manned space missions.

On July 20, 1969, Buzz Aldrin wore his Speedmaster on the surface of the Moon. No other watch has been to the Moon. That fact has never stopped mattering to anyone who cares about watches.

The Speedmaster's production history across our inventory is rich: the manual-wind Professional (ref 145.022 from 1969 itself), the Reduced automatic (3510.5, 3511.5, 3511.8 with date), the Triple Calendar series (3521, 3523.3), the Michael Schumacher limited editions (3810.12, 3518.5), and the AC Milan and Schumacher World Champion 2000 editions. Each variant was built on the same essential chassis — the 39mm steel case, the tachymeter bezel — and each one lands somewhere on the continuum between racing instrument and artifact of human achievement.


What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
