I recently purchased a new Speedmaster Pro through Jay at Topper, and had a great experience. I have to say that Omega got this watch really spot on. Great vintage-inspired details throughout that really made it easy to purchase this over a vintage step-dial Speedy that I can no longer justify purchasing at today's prices. I think the movement upgrades are great too, but for me the aesthetics over the 1861 were the main thing. The bracelet is very nice, although I wish it had come with the Chronoscope clasp. Maybe I will upgrade to that at some point.

Looks great. I also plumped for the 3861 as I never really gelled with any 1861 I’ve tried on. Preferred to go with new over the angst of getting the “right” vintage one. Enjoy it

I prefer vintage, but a Speedmaster is a Speedmaster. Welcome to the club.

Welcome to the club! Excellent choice. Now you get to wear a speedy as often as you like while you save up for and hunt down the vintage grail that you really wanted in the first place. Haha, just teasing… mostly… or maybe I’m justifying having made a similar decision myself… The price of a decent -66 is easily double the 3861. Oh wait, now I’ll end up spending 3x that to have them both.

Congrats 👍

I just put a deposit down on one yesterday. I wore my 105.012-66 to the AD to do a comparison and a lot of the features are really very close.
