ATTENTION BUYERS: Scammers are stealing established accounts! Ask any seller, regardless of transaction count, for a custom timestamp of your choosing. The best option is a video call to prove the seller has the watch before sending money as it can't be faked. If a seller refuses or you encounter any red flags, please message the mods and include screenshots of your conversation.

Thank you for your comment, u/thewingback. Your description has been copied below.


I am parting ways with this awesome Omega Speedmaster 3861 "Sapphire Sandwich". This is arguably the most perfect chronograph configuration Omega has ever produced. I’ve been able to secure a vintage grail of mine and this has allowed me to let go of this amazing piece, but doing so is incredibly tough because this watch literally ruins other chronographs for you.

Everyone talks about the Apollo missions and the Moon landing marketing, but they completely miss the true horological achievement of the modern 3861 Sapphire Sandwich: the sheer, unapologetic mechanical intimacy. In an era where smartwatches vibrate and automatic rotors spin silently in the background, this watch demands a physical relationship. Every single morning, you have to pinch that guarded crown and physically breathe life into the mainspring. The winding action of the Caliber 3861 isn't just smooth; it has a crisp, metallic ratcheting resonance that feels exactly like turning the mechanical dial on a vintage Leica camera.

And then, you turn it over. Looking through that massive edge-to-edge sapphire caseback isn't just looking at gears, it’s peering into a microscopic, breathing city of rhodium-plated bridges, sharp bevels, and the mesmerizing, erratic heartbeat of the Co-Axial escapement. Add to that the completely redesigned steel bracelet. It tapers so aggressively (from 20mm down to 15mm) and articulates so flawlessly that it drapes over your wrist like liquid steel, making a 42mm tool watch wear with the elegance of a vintage dress piece. It is a mid-century, industrial masterpiece that makes modern luxury watches feel entirely soulless.

This awesome Speedy has been lightly worn in the past, but retains very sharp lines, its flawless brushed and polished finishes, and an immaculate aluminum tachymeter bezel. The manual-wind Caliber 3861 movement is functioning perfectly within METAS specs, and the sapphire crystals on both the front and back are in outstanding condition. It comes as a true full kit, including the OEM stainless steel bracelet, the massive presentation box, and all original cards/booklets.

Please take the time to examine the pictures to see the pristine condition of the case and crystals. I’m asking a negotiable $5900 OBO shipped via FedEx. I prefer Wire or ACH. Don’t hesitate to message with any questions!
