Details

The Story

Here's an Omega Speedmaster Professional Reference 3590.50 manual wind chronograph from the early 90s. Keeps great time and is fully functional. Measurements include a 42mm case size and 20mm lug width. Bracelet fits up to an 8 inch wrist. Time and chronograph function only. 3 sub dials at 3, 6, and 9 a clock. Manual wind caliber 861. The lume in both the hands and hour markers aged to a nice yellow patina. Both the dial and crystal are free from any scratches or marks. Comes with its original grey box, outer box, and manual. All parts are original including the signed crown, signed caseback, dial, and movement. Both the dial and case are in great cosmetic, untouched condition.
Key Specs
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.
