    hello,

    i'm interested since years in the moon watch. Because I like to see the movement and also the great shape of the hesalite glass I'm want think the 3752 is my choice.
    I from Germany so I search a watch in Europe - I found a watch in Berlin but I'm not sure if this is a good offer - maybe you guys can have a look and give me an advice - the watch is without papers it in good conditions.

    Thanks a lot Kind regards Sven

    Looks in nice shape - practically new. Price is okay - maybe 100 Euro too high? Within range anyway. Most I've seen for sale trend around $3K US.

    The pictures aren't very good, but it seems decent. I don't know if the price is good, but it's not horrible.

    Notes:

    * Given the luminova dial and rhodium-plated 1863 movement, this appears to be made 1997-2003.

    * The bracelet appears to date to 1999-2002. If original, that would narrow down the date of this watch.

    * Bezel appears original (it's not a 2004 and later service bezel).

    * With used watches, it's best to assume that it needs a servicing. In the US, that would cost US$710+tax from Omega, but a local watchmaker might be cheaper.

    * Note that there are earlier 3572.50 watches (1995-1997) with a yellow-gilded 863 movement and (nonfunctional) tritium dial. Some people prefer the patina of the nonfunctional tritium dial, and the yellow-gilded 863 movement arguably looks better than the rhodium-plated 1863 (assuming that one does not have an aversion to a gold appearance).

    They also made the 3572.50 with tritium dials and with rhodium plating. Mine is from 1998.

    I think if you go luminova, there are better options.
