    Greetings! For sale here is a 1992 Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch "Apollo XI" 3592.50. This model has a hesalite crystal in the front, and a sapphire display caseback, showing a gorgeous Calibre 863. This piece is an excellent entry point to the vintage Speedmaster world. It has the patina tritium dial that looks very similar to the 60-70s 145.022, but comes with a less price tag. Being able to see the movement gave this piece a unique advantage even compared to these earlier models.

    Specs:
    Year: 1992 (both serial# and warranty card date)
    Serial#: 48271***, which puts the production year in 1992 according to the website below:
    http://www.chronomaddox.com/romans.html
    Ref: 3592.50
    Material: Stainless Steel
    Crystal: Hesalite
    Case back: Sapphire Display back
    Movement: Cal. 863
    Diameter: 42mm
    Accessories: User's Manual, Stamped Warranty Card

    Conditions:
    Movement:
    - Running a bit fast at +31sec/day.
    - Amplitude is 252 based on my phone app timegrapher.
    - Winds very smoothly.
    - Chronograph functions flawlessly, and everything resets to dead center zero.
    - The movement could use a service as indicated in the daily rate and amplitude.

    Dial: Incredibly clean and flawless tritium dial. Beautiful, even patina on the indices.

    Hands: I have my watchmaker checked and all appear original and with beautiful patina matching the dial. No chips/cracks in the lume.

    Crystal: Does not appear to be Omega OEM, as there's no Omega logo in the center. However, a genuine Omega OEM part cost less than $100 and should be an easy replacement in the next service. [Edit: was informed by one OFer that for a period of time the logo was omitted on the crystal so this could still be the Omega OEM crystal.]

    Case: Polished but overall in excellent condition.

    Bezel: Excellent condition, no noticeable dings or scratches.

    Bracelet: Original 1479 bracelet. Being polished and overall in excellent condition.
