Review the Omega Speedmaster Day-Date 39 MM Watch Replica With Low Price

There is no doubt that the famous "Pro" series Speedmaster replica is Omega's most popular chronograph collection today and in history - contrary to popular belief, not all Speedmaster replicas are actually moon watches. It's worth noting that the brand has been producing a variety of variations on classic chronograph designs over the years, from traditional models to moon phases and even digital wearers and jewelry styles.

A variant that's particularly off the beaten track is the Omega Speedmaster Day-Date 39 MM watch replica 3520.50.00, an interesting, loosely-packed series that was especially popular around the turn of the century and decade or so.

The Case & Dial

On the wrist, the case is familiar Omega Speedmaster replica, complete with a sporty 39mm by 14mm profile, somewhat robust on the wrist, but still with classic features of the collection like in a pair of twisted lugs, aluminum tachymetric bezel, and a large set of pump pushers flanking a deeply toothed crown. It's on the dial where we see the unique features of the Day-Date design, most importantly in its pairing of a triple calendar style with a vertical chronograph configuration and day/night indicator. Classic Speedmaster colors and accents like in its sharp hands and 3 o'clock script anchor the aesthetic, the overall style ably recalling both historic Speedmaster motifs alongside contemporary design influences. 

On to the dial. Starting with the premise that this is a "reduced" model, dial real estate is not abundant, yet Omega had to cram in three sub-registers (technically four if you count the stacked sub-dial as two), eight hands, two windows, a full date index, not to mention your typical hour, minute and second marks. Starting with the latter, you'll find large, lumed rectangles at the hour positions that aren't covered by sub-dials, counting an awkward total of nine. Between these are long white lines for the minutes/seconds and short white marks at 1/5th second, once again as allowed by the sub-dials.

At 12 is the 30-minute totalizer, with marks per minute, numerals every five minutes, and nestled within its bounds, the day and month windows. While typical for the 1151/7751, the dimensions of the sub-dial are quite small, just barely containing the windows, which along with the marks and numerals creates a lot of density at the top of the watch. Oddly contrasting this, at six is the 12-hour totalizer, with marks per hour, and numerals only every three, echoing the classic Speedmaster replica design. Both pressed into the dial and with the same diameter, one is crowded while the other sparse. It's odd and unbalanced but somehow adds charm.

The Movement

The Speedmaster Date replica was introduced before the wide adoption of Co-Axial movements by OMEGA, and as such is powered via the OMEGA caliber 1151, a modulated mechanism based upon the ETA 7751, itself based upon the legendary 7750. The movement is capable of a 44-hour power reserve and is as ready-for-anything as the case that houses it. An alternating five-link brushed and polished steel bracelet secures the timepiece to the wrist, the endlinks transitioning seamlessly with the case proper. 

The Strap

The 3520 did come on a bracelet, which was included with the example I acquired as well. It's a late '90s / early aughts Speedmaster bracelet, so it's five links with two thinner ones between three wide. Going by Omega's site, it appears the thinner links should be polished, though on mine they are brushed, making me believe there could have been different bracelets at different times. It tapers slightly from the 18mm lug to 16mm and features a hidden clasp with a single button release. This is probably the best feature as it lacks one of Omega's signature over-sized clasps.
