Hello Members.

Just need your informed opinions on this Roulette dial Omega Speedmaster.

Does anyone know when they were produced? Rarity?

Price range etc?

It's information for my cousin who is looking for something similar

Looks like a 3210.52 but be VERY careful because there are tons of fakes of that watch.

Thanks - I think the one above is as I've noticed a few little differences especially with the sub dials!

I edited my original post - found the exact model number. 😉 Thought it was a variant of the 3211.31 which shows how much I know about modern watches. 😜

😉 I can't find very much on these at all. Oh well, think this one will fall through!

They use the caliber 1164 which is a Valjoux 7750. And since there's an Asian clone of the 7750, the fakes can be pretty good if the counterfeiters are careful with the dial.

That photo is so dark it's hard to see all the details well, but here is the photo of the dial from Omega for comparison....



Cheers, Al

Quite a lot of differences there...

1) all sub-dials and date window are positioned incorrectly
2) all sub-dials have incorrect layout
3) seamaster instead of Speedmaster
4) hour markers in the edge of dial are coloured in reverse for 7-12 / 19-24
...
n) What all did I miss? 😉

Edit: damn, the quote functionality renders the pics too tiny... 🙁

I think so, and a BIG thanks to you guys for the info! I had a hunch, but I thought it was a good price. Seller backed out after saying he didn't want to post the watch and provide his account details over the phone. Glad he made the decision for me! 😵‍💫

The subdials are always a give away to the position of fake Speedmasters.

Greetings. I own the Speedmaster in question. The real one anyway. The one pictured here is a fake. Subdials are in the wrong place, date wheel should be black, etc etc. The reference number is 3210.52.

Its an interesting dial because the hour indicies have the associated 24hr time as well as day/night indicator. Rather interesting. Black for night, blue for day. So at 8 o'clock you have "8/20" with the 8 having a blue background for day and the 20 having a black background for night. Some have referred to it as the Speedmaster Date GMT but it really isn't a GMT.

3210.52s aren't rare but they weren't sold very long. Maybe 3 years, little less. Wasn't that long at all. It does have a lot of presence though.
