    Hi guys,
    Newbie here... Ive has a 3510.50 reduced back in the 90's but sold it. (regret) and now I'm in the market for a new
    omega. I've found three but wanted to get everyone's input regarding: 1. COST 2. LONG TERM VALUE 3. BUY OLDER OR NEWER 4. BEST MOVEMENT/BUILD ETC.
    Here's the three I'm looking at and thanks in advance helping me decide
    3523.30 1999 yr for $2300 (no box or papers)
    3513.30 2010 yr. for $2400 + box and papers
    or
    3221.30 2017 w/ warrantee for $2750 + box and papers
    All are mint ( 9 out of 10 cond)
    So... please help. Overpriced? which would you go for?
    thanks

    Maybe I’m not typical but I don’t know what, say, a 3523.30 is off the top of my head and I’m not googling it for you.
    Pictures do a lot of talking!

    ok thanks... but here's what I'm after I guess.... WHY the 3523.30 INSTEAD of the 3513.30 OR the 3221.30 given price and year?

    Since most of us haven’t memorized the hundreds of modern reference numbers. Can you provide pictures or descriptions of your choices. No ones going to go through all that work.

    Most from that era will hold price. I can think of only one that might go up in value. Watches are not really investments.

    Are those all Speedy reduced models? Either way, I personally wouldn't be looking at any of them, honestly. I'd just save a while longer (if required) and buy a regular Speedy Pro from one of the reliable sellers here for around $3500. I can't imagine spending in the $2500 range for any of the models you listed.

    Good watches established prices that are easy to find.

    There is no 3221.30 from 2017. They are wrong.
